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.
