The I-9 Survival Guide
Staying Compliant in a Complicated World
Presented by Sheila Moss, SHRM-SCP and SPHR of Information Solutions Team (Fayetteville, AR)
Form I-9 compliance remains one of HR’s most deceptively challenging tasks—easy to overlook, yet costly when mistakes occur. In this fast-paced and engaging session, Sheila Moss—nationally known as the “I-9 Lady”—will guide participants through the essentials of proper I-9 completion, retention, and verification.
With humor, real-world examples, and practical strategies, Sheila will cut through the confusion, highlight the most common pitfalls, and equip HR professionals with tools to manage compliance confidently. Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of their obligations and practical tips they can apply immediately in their organizations
After this session, participants will be able to:
Recognize the core requirements for accurate and compliant Form I-9 completion, including timelines, documentation, and retention rules.
Identify common errors and pitfalls that increase audit and penalty risks—and learn practical ways to prevent them.
Apply best practices for everyday compliance (including E-Verify use, reverification, and remote verification) that balance legal requirements with HR efficiency.
The I-9 Survival Guide has been submitted to both SHRM and HRCI for recertification credit consideration.
