Processing an I-9 form is one of our favorite things to do… okay not really, but it is an important part of onboarding a new hire! In the inaugural episode of Your Human Resource, we dig into the specifics of the I-9 form, including why you need new hires to complete it, when it needs to be processed, and how to make sure it’s processed correctly.
Please note: this episode was recorded in the summer of 2023, so the dates of new changes to the I-9 we discuss in this episode were all in 2023.

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
The I-9 is a tool to verify the identity and eligibility to work of US employees. All businesses in the United States must complete a form I-9 to hire and onboard an employee.
Employers that are in good standing with USCIS, and those that use E-Verify, may continue to virtually inspect the I-9 supporting documents beyond August 1st, 2023.
Employers must maintain a person's Form I-9 for as long as the individual works for the employer and for the required retention period after the termination of an individual's employment.
