Social Security Mismatch Audits

Social Security Mismatch Audits occur when employers receive notices from the Social Security Administration (SSA) indicating employee names and Social Security numbers do not match their records. In the context of immigration audits, these mismatches can raise compliance issues related to the employment of unauthorized workers. Employers must investigate and resolve these discrepancies to verify the eligibility of their employees to work in the U.S. Failure to address these issues can result in penalties or legal consequences, emphasizing the importance of maintaining accurate employee records and ensuring proper documentation for immigration compliance.
