For I-9 technical violations, an employer is provided with at least 10 business days to correct the violations listed below after notification of such violations.  If the employer corrects the violations within the designated time period, the employer normally is deemed to have complied with the requirements and no violation exists. 

If the technical violations cannot be reasonably corrected, the employer should provide to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) an explanation in writing of why the violation reasonably cannot be corrected.  If ICE determines the explanation is reasonable, the technical violation will not be consideration a violation subject to a Notice of Intent to Fine.
