Recent events have created confusion for employers trying to correct problems identified in the Social Security Administration No-Match letters, as well as to comply with Form I-9 requirements. Currently, the regulations on these topics are in a state of flux, making compliance extremely difficult. A preliminary injunction remains in place that prohibits enforcement of the Department of Homeland Security’s final regulations on employer responses to No-Match letters. Moreover, President Obama has delayed the implementation of the new Form I-9 until at least April 3, 2009.
