Your organization enrolled in E-Verify to strengthen compliance, but could that same program now be the source of your next government audit?

In the final episode of Klasko Immigration Law Partners' Worksite Compliance mini-series, host Nick Lowrey, Senior Associate in Klasko's Washington, D.C. office, is joined by John Fay, Director of Product Strategy at Equifax Workforce Solutions. With two decades of experience in I-9 and E-Verify compliance and a background that spans both law and technology, John brings a uniquely practical perspective to one of the most misunderstood enforcement tools currently being deployed against employers.

Nick and John break down what an E-Verify desk audit (officially called a "desk review") actually looks like in practice, including audit triggers, typical government requests, common pitfalls, and potential consequences of non-compliance. Whether you're a current E-Verify participant, considering enrollment, or simply trying to understand how worksite compliance enforcement is evolving, this episode offers a clear-eyed, practical guide to protecting your organization.

Your organization enrolled in E-Verify to strengthen compliance, but could that same program now be the source of your next government audit? In the final episode of Klasko Immigration Law Partners' Worksite Compliance mini-series, host Nick Lowrey, Senior Associate in Klasko's Washington, D.C. office, is joined by John Fay, Director of Product Strategy at Equifax Workforce Solutions. With two decades of experience in I-9 and E-Verify compliance and a background that spans both law and technology, John brings a uniquely practical perspective to one of the most misunderstood enforcement tools currently being deployed against employers. Nick and John break down what an E-Verify desk audit (officially called a "desk review") actually looks like in practice, including: •	What triggers the government's automated data analytics flag and puts an employer on the audit radar •	What documents and records are typically requested, and how the response window has recently been compressed from 10 to 5 business days •	Why proof of E-Verify user training is a newly scrutinized requirement that many employers are unprepared to document •	How the government's recommendation report distinguishes between discrepancies and observations •	Why termination from the E-Verify program, not financial penalties, is the primary enforcement tool  Nick and John also address the do's and don'ts of responding to a desk audit, including why employers should avoid reflexively correcting records before carefully reviewing the government's findings with counsel. Whether you're a current E-Verify participant, considering enrollment, or simply trying to understand how worksite compliance enforcement is evolving, this episode offers a clear-eyed, practical guide to protecting your organization.
