Foreign Work Force Helps Sustain Our Local Businesses
With Labor Day now behind us, likely many of us have enjoyed some summer fun with our families. Whether a lazy summer day on one of our Jersey Shore beaches, or a day riding the coasters at one of our Pennsylvania amusement parks, summer affords us this time to shut it down and soak up the sun. But, while you're walking the boards looking for ice cream, have you ever stopped to notice who are those folks working the rides, serving the ice cream or manning the gaming booths? Same goes for the ticket takers at the theme parks. And who hasn't used their mobile phone or laptop to order those staples for the shore house that you just don't want to leave the beach to go shop for. Take a closer look and also ponder who might have designed that great app you are using to order those school supplies while the kids are splashing in the pool. Now that you think about it, walking the boardwalks at night can often be analogous to walking down Fifth Avenue in Manhattan during the holidays, English is among the languages you will hear.

COVID-19 Legal Digest: President Trump Signs Order Suspending Some Immigration into U.S. for 60 Days
On April 22nd, pursuant to his authority under the Immigration and Nationality Act, President Trump issued a Proclamation temporarily suspending the entry of certain immigrants into the United States. Citing decreased economic demand, high unemployment, and an overburdened healthcare system in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the President has determined that continued immigration into the United States is not in the national interests, and represents a risk to the United States labor market. President Trump's Proclamation is effective beginning at 11:59 P.M. on April 23rd and expires after sixty (60) days.

Important Changes For Employers: New I-9 Form and Procedures
Whether employers are hiring United States citizens or foreign nationals with visa needs, onboarding is governed in part by immigration Form I-9. As a general basis, every employee must fill out a Form I-9 to prove both identity and eligibility to work in the United States. Immigration, more specifically ICE, is authorized and active in enforcing employers' compliance with I-9 protocols. Restated, this innocuous form can create a lot of employer headaches if not completed and maintained correctly. Fortunately, Archer attorneys have a "deep bench" of experience in assisting clients with the nuances of I-9 compliance.
