We are halfway through August, with most of the country in a heatwave or soon approaching one. The days are hot, and Beyonce is in the North American leg of her Renaissance tour meaning that the nights are even hotter.
But another temperature is getting turned up as the days go by, and its coming from the white-hot pressure to reverify all employees by the August 30 deadline.
Indeed, employers have only 15 days from the time of publication to reverify every employee that was remotely onboarded between March 2020 and May 2023.
These employees would have been remotely onboarded during the temporary flexibility to in-person requirements offered by DHS in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Companies wisely did not bring their employees in to complete Section 2 of Form I-9 in person. But now it’s time to put it right.
The Complex Reverification Process
For employers with multiple remote employees, it is going to be costly and time-consuming to bring in employees to the company headquarters to reverify them. They must fly people in, house them, and bring them into the office, all to complete a less-than-one-minute reverification process.
Businesses are rightly skeptical of such an undertaking, looking for alternate means to reverify their remote employees before the August 30 deadline.
Times are tight and companies are not looking to take on the added expense of reverification. This has business leaders asking if there is a cost-efficient, time-efficient pathway to reverification.
Fortunately, with TrendSource, there is.
