Teachout<\/strong>, Brightmine Legal Editor<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The IRS will share information with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) about certain immigrant taxpayers without legal status, under a new&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/embed.documentcloud.org\/documents\/25889274-mou-0408\/?embed=1&amp;mode=document\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)<\/a>&nbsp;between the IRS and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The MOU creates a framework that allows ICE or DHS to provide the IRS with names and addresses of taxpayers living in the United States without legal status who have final removal orders or are under criminal investigation. Then, the IRS will cross reference those names and addresses with existing taxpayer data and provide the resulting information to ICE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">An undocumented worker who wishes to pay taxes can apply for an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (&#8220;ITIN&#8221;) and use it to report earned income to the IRS.&nbsp;The IRS maintains the data on these registered undocumented persons who pay federal taxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Having access to this undocumented worker pay data will provide the DHS and ICE an additional source of intelligence that can help identify companies that employ undocumented workers. The MOU does not state when information-sharing between the agencies will start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">To minimize liability in the event of an ICE subpoena for documents or an unexpected workplace raid, employers need to ensure compliance with the identity and work authorization requirements of Form I-9, advises attorney Alyson Waite of Benesch. This advice comes as ICE Acting Director Tom Homan has announced that federal agents will start increasing worksite enforcement in sanctuary cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">&#8220;In addition, employers should expect the revival of Social Security Administration (SSA) no-match letters,&#8221; warns Waite. &#8220;These letters are issued to employers advising that the name or Social Security number reported for one or more employees does not match a name or SSN combination reflected in SSA&#8217;s records.&#8221; She cautions employers not to use the letters as evidence of immigration status and to notify affected employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">&#8220;Employers also should have a plan in place to terminate employees who are unable to establish continued authorization to work in the US,&#8221; Waite said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull has-alabaster-gray-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull has-primary-white-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-bbb7e64f wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\">See our extensive HR resources and expertise<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size\">In an ever-changing regulatory environment, we have everything you need to stay in control and compliant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-a89b3969 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-primary-white-color has-secondary-blue-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/hrcenter.us.brightmine.com\/freetrial-login\/?loggedInUrl=%2Ffreetrial%2Fnew-user%2F&amp;registrationUrl=%2Ffreetrial%2Fnew-user%2F&amp;intcmp=bottom|cta-single|light|banner|hrcentreuk-freetrial|start-your-free-trial\" style=\"border-radius:100px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Start your free trial<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-primary-white-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-fcdab8bb wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-radius:25px;margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">About the author<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100px\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-thumbnail is-resized is-style-rounded\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.brightmine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/09090849\/Robert-Teachout-150x150.webp\" alt=\"Robert Teachout, SHRM-SCP - Legal Editor at Brightmine\" class=\"wp-image-4983\" style=\"object-fit:cover;width:100px;height:100px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.brightmine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/09090849\/Robert-Teachout-150x150.webp 150w, https:\/\/cdn.brightmine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/09090849\/Robert-Teachout.webp 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Robert S.
