New I-9 Form Is Now Available
The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services has released a new I-9 employment verification form that goes into effect immediately. Employers can use the previous form dated in 2009 until 5/7/2013, however we recommend that all employers begin to use the form immediately.
All employers must have a valid I-9 form on file for all employees on their payroll, and the form must be kept on file for 3 years after the date of hire or for one year after employment is terminated, whichever is longer.
The new form can be downloaded at: www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-9.pdf
Get Financially Fit!
It's time to get that piggy bank in shape!
You can’t make real money unless you are financially fit, so drop those dumbbells, grab your pen and paper, and join H&S Companies Partners Ward VanDam, Mike Farmer, and Randy Filbrandt at the Muskegon Lakeshore Chamber of Commerce March Business Briefing.
Randy will show you how to put together a financially fit plan to get you on track (and you don’t even have to roll out of bed at 5 am)! Need a little motivation? Muskegon Brake & Tires, REMAX, and The Fish Monger’s Wife will share case studies.
Plus, Ward VanDam will share a brief tax update (with all of the recent tax changes, you won’t want to miss it), and Mike Farmer will share a small business accounting update.
Don’t wait! Pre-Register now. Space is filling up fast.
