“We were in the middle of due diligence for an acquisition when questions were raised about work authorization of employees in one of the plants. I contacted VISANOW and within less than a week they had processed the paper forms for more than 500 workers and identified 34 as ineligible and 130 more with minor I-9 violations.” “VISANOW prevented us from blindly acquiring a compliance risk and enabled us to negotiate a lower acquisition price.”

VISANOW Employment Eligibility Compliance Services

VISANOW’s comprehensive compliance services help employers organize their I-9’s, create efficient I-9 processes, and mitigate non-compliance risks such as fines, arrests, workforce disruption, and negative publicity from intensifying government enforcement efforts.

I9NOW online I-9 preparation, storage, E-Verify validation; backed by legal advice

Maintaining I-9 forms online significantly simplifies the administration, especially for organizations with multiple locations. It also streamlines internal audits to verify compliance.

Based on VISANOW’s patented online platform, our I9NOW service allows you to prepare, store, search and retrieve I-9 forms online and even run analytical or status reports. VISANOW is one of only a handful of “Federally Approved E-Verify Designated Web Services Agents” and offers the integrated option of validating your I-9s against the E-Verify database if and whenever you choose to.

Unlike any other provider, VISANOW backs all I-9’s created and stored through I9NOW with unlimited legal advice. So if you or your employees have questions, our attorneys will answer them within 30 minutes without any additional fees. All this for a one-time fee of only $2.50/form, regardless of how long you store forms for.

If you have been using paper forms, transitioning to I9NOW online storage is easy - you can either enter your current I-9 form information yourself or VISANOW can handle the transition for you.

  • Increase I-9 accessibility with centralized online storage.
  • Simplify initial I-9 creation and re-verification, especially across multiple locations.
  • Access unlimited I-9 legal advice at no extra charge.
  • Streamline internal audits.
  • Simplify E-Verify validation (if applicable/desired).

Internal Compliance Audits

Minimize non-compliance risks through internal audits before any government audit. Beyond I-9 compliance, organizations employing foreign nationals need to adhere to additional H-1B related compliance regulations concerning Labor Condition Applications (LCA) and Public Access Files (PAF).

VISANOW's experienced legal team reviews your I-9 forms and supporting documentation as well as any H-1B Labor Condition Applications and Public Access Files. The resulting post-audit report assesses current compliance, identifies issues and recommends corrective action.

  • Assess non-compliance risks from I-9’s, H-1B LCA’s/PAF’s.
  • Identify current compliance process weaknesses and how to address them.
  • Mitigate non-compliance risks such as fines, arrests, workforce disruption, or negative publicity.

Mergers & Acquisitions Compliance Assessment

Corporate mergers and acquisitions (M&A) can have far reaching implications for employment eligibility compliance. New I-9’s and other immigration documents may be required and you could assume immigration liability and non-compliance risk from an acquired company. Therefore, employment eligibility compliance should be included in any M&A due diligence.

M&A activities are often carried out under aggressive timelines and VISANOW attorneys can assess compliance risks very rapidly. If required, VISANOW’s I9NOW service offers a fast and scalable solution for processing large volumes of I-9 documents within very short time periods.

  • Minimize the risk of assuming liability for the acquired company’s prior non-compliance.
  • Assess the value employees represent in M&A activity.
  • Ensure workforce continuity post M&A.

Employment Eligibility Compliance Process Development & Training

Our compliance team can help you create efficient compliance procedures for the first time or refine/update your current processes. We can train staff on compliance best practices and more specific topics such as how to detect fraudulent documents in the I-9 process or how to use E-Verify. Training can be delivered remotely or on site.

  • Establish new procedures or refine existing ones.
  • Get staff trained remotely or on site, based on your needs.
