Setting politics and personalities aside; the election is
over and we will soon have new management. Understandably, change can be
difficult for many people due to the uncertainty of what the benefits, or
consequences, of what that change may bring. We must all remember that change is inevitable.
There is a great deal of concern from those undocumented
people, who are now afraid that they will be deported.
Although I have to admit that their fears are somewhat
justified; it seems nearly impossible for the new administration to overcome
the legal hurdles of processing, and deporting millions of people. This is compounded because previous administrations seem to have not only “tolerated” illegal
immigration, but that they have supported and even given rights to these people – which is why
mass deportations seem highly unlikely.
As Non-Immigrant Labor is a specific concern to us, as well
as our clients; it seems important that we try to keep you up to date, and refrain from editorializing.
Our best advice is:
1. Follow the rules of law, especially
for the programs you are using.
2. Stay on top of your documentation
and use due diligence when reviewing new hire documents – E-Verify is a great
tool!
Now begins the speculation, but some very good points are
brought up.
