I know it is not the employeers duty to police I-9 documents for validity...having that said when a person that has already been offered and accepted a job then provides documents that are blatently fake documents. (ie socials with really bad computer generated print, etc...) What is an employer to do...
I want to tell them I cannot accept because I have reason to believe that it is fake and ask them to provide a different document but i know this walks a fine line with descrimination...Then again it walks a fine line of "reasonably" verifying their documents if you know they are fake.
On a side note i have seen very bad counterfeit socials with actual Drivers Licenses from the DMV in IL. I don't know how they are pulling this off. I'm from the SW and it's not as bad down there, possibly it's the new industry I'm in.
Please help, Any advise..?
