“Vexing E-Verify Issues for Experts”: Katie Nokes Minervino on Faculty at 2018 AILA Employer Compliance and Worksite Enforcement Conference

The E-Verify Memorandum of Understanding, user manual, and website cover basic obligations and scenarios, but they also present a variety of issues that continue to vex employers and the attorneys who advise them. Immigration law partner Katie Minervino participated in a panel discussion on complex E-Verify issues, as well as a range of topics including:

• Registration options for employers with complex legal structures
• Worksites vs. hiring sites for staffing agencies, STEM students, and federal contractors
• Balancing state law issues with the federal MOU
• Advanced employer challenges and strategies for resolution
• Monitoring and compliance desk reviews

For more than ten years, Katie Minervino’s practice has focused exclusively on employment-based immigration law, helping employers and employees create and execute immigration strategies to meet their short- and long-term immigration needs. Katie is also the AILA Verification & Documentation Liaison Vice Chair.
