Wow, I made you SHOUT, I am so proud of myself.
You don't actually need a tool to be a company or self-employed, doofus. Some bozo I hire off the street to fix my software problem for an hour isn't my employee.
And yes, I do have an idea since I own a company, which started out as one unlicensed retard that was self-employed and did everything by the IRS book.
The point is, I am not responsible for checking the immigration status of a contractor or company I hire, only for the immigration status of a person I EMPLOY.
CHECKMATE BOZO.
Yes, as a matter of fucking fact, some bozo hired off the street IS YOUR FUCKING EMPLOYEE. What the hell do you think maids and drivers are? And, CLEARLY, you are not doing everything by the book if you seem to think hiring illegals to build your driveway is perfectly legal. I suggest you re-read that I-9 again.
the point is, a couple dudes off the street ARE NOT A FUCKING CONTRACTOR OR COMPANY and, thus, makes it YOUR responsibility to check for eligability.
Part Two
When You Must Complete the Form I-9
You must complete the Form I-9
every time you hire any
person to perform labor or services in return for wages or
other remuneration. This requirement
applies to everyone
hired after November 6, 1986.
Ensure that the employee fully completes Section 1 of the
Form I-9 at the time of the hire - when the employee begins
work. Review the employeeÂ’s document(s) and fully complete
Section 2 of the Form I-9 within 3 business days of the hire.
If you hire a person for less than 3 business days, Sections 1
and 2 of the Form I-9 must be fully completed at the time of
the hire – when the employee begins work.
You DO NOT need to complete a Form I-9 for persons who
are:
You do not qualify
1. Hired before November 7, 1986, who are continuing in
their employment and have a reasonable expectation of
employment at all times;
YOU DO NOT QUALIFY - Building your driveway is not like a kid babysitting
2. Employed for casual
domestic work
in a
private home on a sporadic, irregular, or intermittent basis;
YOU DO NOT QUALIFY - ILLEGALS are NOT independant contractors just because they have a toolbelt
3. Independent contractors; or
YOU DO NOT QUALIFY - YOU ARE NOT CONTRACTING WORK FROM A CONTRACTING COMPANY
4. Providing labor to you who are employed by a contractor
providing contract services (e.g., employee leasing or
temporary agencies).
and, my all time special favorite checkmate slam dunk:
NOTE: You cannot contract for the labor of an alien if you
know the alien is not authorized to work in the United States.
