Prior to President Trump taking office, in-house counsel typically delegated immigration compliance to HR professionals and staff. But now that the new standard for immigration adjudications is “extreme vetting”—with a 400 percent increase in worksite enforcement investigations in the past few years—the law demands a closer oversight of immigration matters. Meanwhile, employers now face innumerable barricades to hiring qualified foreign national employees to meet labor needs, including visa denials, the ending of deference to prior immigration applications, additional federal enforcement efforts, and an increase in private litigation. Employers must also confront the antidiscrimination provision of the INA during recruiting, hiring, and terminations.
