Actually, I think this is common and inconsequential if he checked their papers and social security nos and paid their FICA and unemployment insurance. That’s a great deal more than most homeowners do with regard to household workers. I doubt anyone even reads these forms for household employees anyway.

Aim your kicks higher than the ankles ..pls.

You are correct.

And you don’t ‘file’ an I-9 with anyone except yourself. You fill it out, you sign it, and the employee signs it, and you keep it. If the government asks to see it, you send them a copy.

This high powered lawyer didn’t know about an I9 form?

You mean he handled the payroll, workers comp, W4s, EIN, payroll, state agencies reporting, etc.... and never came across an I9?

Are we to believe that this guy thought that every person’s “right to work” status was so unimportant to the federal govt that they would forego official forms and paperwork? And that he just happened to “note” each employee’s status every year?

But most homeowners aren't looking to be hired to enforce the laws that they are breaking!!! WTF? That would be like hiring a tax cheat to head up the IRS. Oh wait.....Zero already did that.....duh!
