Summary
Under the Trump administration, increased scrutiny on immigration and work authorization requests is expected, with a focus on audits and raids. HR teams should prepare for delays in visa applications and heightened scrutiny of work authorizations, particularly for H-1B visas. To mitigate potential delays, HR should review their foreign-born workforce and ensure compliance with I-9 forms. It's important to have a response plan for potential immigration raids, including verifying warrants and designating trained staff for interaction with immigration agents.

HR leaders should consult with immigration counsel and inform executives about the potential impact of immigration changes on foreign-born employees. HR should also encourage employees to renew visas early and educate them about their rights. Offering transparency and support can help ease employee concerns and improve morale during these challenging times.
