Why make it any more complicated unless it is necessary. Granted. all that the employer gets out of this verification and keeping of the forms is an affirmative defense which can be rebutted. It is not an absolute defense. All of this recordkeeping is required just so that initially if an illegal alien is found on the employers premises or in the employment of the employer. he can say. "Well. gosh. I didnt know that." But that affirmative defense can be offset by proof that the employer did have some knowledge to the contrary. That is all this recordkeeping is about.
