ICE I-9 audits are triggered by multiple factors including anonymous tips from disgruntled employees, competitors, or community members reporting suspected unauthorized worker employment, which account for approximately 30% of audit initiations. Industry-wide enforcement sweeps targeting high-violation sectors—hospitality (hotels, restaurants, casinos), healthcare (nursing homes, hospitals, home care agencies), construction, food service, agriculture, and pharmaceutical manufacturing—result in coordinated audits of multiple employers simultaneously. Prior violations at the same company create enhanced scrutiny with follow-up audits within 12-24 months to verify corrective action implementation. Rapid hiring growth that appears inconsistent with business size or seasonal patterns suggests potential unauthorized workforce utilization. Federal contract bidding requires pre-award compliance verification, triggering mandatory I-9 audits before contract execution. ICE also conducts random audits without specific cause, selecting employers from industries, geographic areas, or business categories targeted for baseline compliance assessment.

Additional audit triggers include: E-Verify anomalies showing unusually high rates of Tentative Nonconfirmations or Final Nonconfirmations suggesting systematic verification problems, worksite enforcement actions at related businesses (parent companies, franchisees, supply chain partners), Social Security Administration no-match letters indicating employee-provided Social Security numbers don't match SSA records, unemployment insurance fraud investigations revealing identity theft or document fraud patterns, and OSHA citations or wage-and-hour violations that prompt inter-agency information sharing leading to I-9 audits. Las Vegas employers in hospitality and healthcare face elevated audit risk due to industry targeting, while construction and food service businesses throughout Henderson and Clark County experience increased enforcement during economic expansion periods when rapid hiring raises ICE concerns about workforce authorization verification.

Most pharmaceutical wholesalers and DSCSA-compliant vendors specifically require Nevada notarization for pharmacy licensing affidavits used in drug supplier relationships. Out-of-state notarizations may be accepted for the initial pharmacy licensing application with the Nevada Board of Pharmacy, but vendor quality agreements typically mandate Nevada notarization because the agreement is being executed in Nevada and DSCSA compliance requirements reference state-specific notarization standards.

Real Scenario: A pharmacy owner in Arizona submitted an Arizona-notarized pharmacy compliance affidavit to a Nevada-based pharmaceutical wholesaler. The wholesaler rejected it, stating "We require Nevada notarization for all pharmacy compliance documentation per our DSCSA audit standards." The pharmacy owner had to pay for re-notarization in Nevada, delaying the vendor relationship startup by one week.

Key Distinction:

• (1) Your Nevada Board of Pharmacy licensing application may accept out-of-state notarization if it's properly formatted
• (2) Pharmaceutical vendor quality agreements almost always require Nevada notarization because the vendor is in Nevada and the agreement is being executed under Nevada law

To avoid rejection delays, use Nevada notarization for all pharmaceutical vendor agreements, quality agreements, and compliance documentation. For initial Board of Pharmacy licensing, check with the Board to confirm whether out-of-state notarization is acceptable before submitting—most require Nevada notarization anyway.

Lake Mead Mobile Notary provides experienced pharmacy affidavit notarization throughout Henderson and all of Clark County. Our notaries understand pharmaceutical compliance language and ensure your affidavits meet both Board of Pharmacy standards AND vendor DSCSA compliance requirements on the first attempt.
