Yes. Nevada DMV accepts VP-136 forms signed by deployed military personnel before departure or notarized by military notaries stationed overseas. Pre-deployment VP-136 notarization allows service members to authorize family members to sell vehicles, complete registration renewals, and handle DMV transactions during deployment throughout Las Vegas and Henderson military family communities.

Military notaries at overseas bases can notarize VP-136 forms provided the notarial certificate meets Nevada acknowledgment requirements.

The 2025 I-9 penalty structure includes three categories of violations with inflation-adjusted amounts. I-9 paperwork violations range from $288 to $2,861 per form for incomplete or incorrect Section 1, Section 2, or Section 3 entries, missing signatures, incorrect dates, or failure to retain completed forms for the required period. Knowing hire violations for employing unauthorized workers range from $716 to $28,619 per employee depending on repeat offense history and whether the violation was a first offense, second offense, or pattern of practice. Document fraud violations for accepting fraudulent documents, failing to properly examine identity documents, or requesting specific documents instead of allowing employee choice range from $590 to $11,823 per violation.

These penalties are adjusted annually for inflation per the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act and apply to all employers regardless of company size or industry. ICE can impose multiple violation types on a single employee's I-9 form—for example, a paperwork violation AND a knowing hire violation—resulting in combined penalties exceeding $31,000 for one employee. First-time offenders typically receive penalties at the lower end of the range, while employers with prior violations, patterns of non-compliance, or evidence of discriminatory practices face maximum penalties plus potential criminal prosecution.

List A documents establish both identity and work authorization, meaning employees presenting a valid List A document need no additional documentation to complete I-9 Section 2. Acceptable List A documents include: U.S. passport (book or card), unexpired foreign passport containing a temporary I-551 stamp or I-551 printed notation on a machine-readable immigrant visa, Permanent Resident Card (Form I-551, commonly called a "green card"), Alien Registration Receipt Card (Form I-551), unexpired Employment Authorization Document (EAD) issued by DHS (Form I-766 or Form I-688B), and unexpired foreign passport with Form I-94 or Form I-94A indicating refugee or asylum status that authorizes employment. Employers must accept any valid List A document the employee presents and cannot require specific documents or reject valid identification based on personal preference, national origin concerns, or unfamiliarity with document types—such actions constitute illegal discrimination.

Common errors with List A documents include: accepting expired passports or EAD cards without reverification, failing to examine the entire document for obvious fraud indicators like photo inconsistencies or altered expiration dates, recording incorrect document numbers or expiration dates in Section 2 fields, requiring employees with valid U.S. passports to provide additional identity documents, and rejecting foreign passports with valid work authorization because the employer is unfamiliar with I-94 notations or refugee stamps. During I-9 completion, the authorized representative must physically examine the original document (not photocopies), verify the document reasonably appears genuine and relates to the person presenting it, and record the document title, issuing authority, document number, and expiration date in Section 2. Employers should train all authorized representatives on List A document features and anti-discrimination rules to avoid the dual risks of accepting fraudulent documents or illegally rejecting valid ones.
