With immigration enforcement intensifying and ICE audits on the rise, employers face unprecedented scrutiny. The 2025 I-9 Form updates have introduced new complexities that are catching even experienced HR professionals off guard. Don't wait for an audit notice—learn how to ensure full compliance now.

Why This Webinar Is Essential

The Department of Homeland Security has launched another updated I-9 Form in 2025, creating confusion for employers nationwide. Meanwhile, Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) has ramped up its "silent raid" strategy—using I-9 audits as a gateway to larger immigration enforcement actions.

Critical statistics you need to know:

• Over 72% of employers have I-9 documents with errors
• Immigration raids have increased under the current administration
• ICE is targeting specific industries with heightened enforcement
• The policy protecting sensitive locations from raids is at risk

How Employers Get Audited

ICE has identified high-risk industries where immigrant hiring is prevalent, including:

However, many audits originate from disgruntled employee complaints—making every organization vulnerable regardless of industry.
