Employee Experience: Providing a smooth, self-service method to collect withholding information, available in multiple languages and accessible 24/7, is essential. Flexibility: Accommodating employees' evolving life situations, such as changes in life status or location, is necessary for a seamless process. Experian's award-winning Tax Withholding solution is designed to address these challenges by simplifying the complex process while supporting accurate and timely tax withholding. Experian's subject matter experts have decades of expertise in workforce compliance, and its solution is easy to use, secure and accessible at any time in multiple languages. "Taxes. It's a topic that makes many people cringe, because the topic is complicated and difficult to understand," said Ben Eubanks, Chief Research Officer at Lighthouse Research & Advisory. "Good thing there are organizations like Experian making it easy for employers to withhold taxes in an accurate and timely manner. Their solution supports 7,000 distinct tax jurisdictions, helping employers and the workforce to stay on top of this critical component of payroll and life." Lighthouse Research & Advisory presented Experian with the award at the annual UNLEASH America Conference in Las Vegas. During the event, Brian Elfrink, director of product management at Experian, and Gordon Middleton, compliance intelligence manager, participated in two speaking sessions that focused on the intricacies of tax withholding as well as the challenges of workforce compliance and how Experian's solutions help businesses stay compliant with various regulations.

Experian Launches Virtual Service to Streamline Form I-9 Compliance
New virtual option for Section 2 completion enhances onboarding efficiency and reduces compliance risks COSTA MESA, Calif., January 29, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In a move to help employers streamline the onboarding process for new hires and mitigate compliance risk, Experian® has announced the launch of a new virtual Section 2 service to aid in the completion of Form I-9. Experian's highly trained experts and government-approved service make the accurate completion of Form I-9 easier and more efficient for both employers and their new hires. Why it matters Form I-9 is a critical piece of the onboarding process and ensures employees are authorized and eligible to work in the U.S. Traditionally, Section 2 of Form I-9 required employers to meet face-to-face with new employees to verify information and documents provided by the employee. However, in-person completion isn't always practical or possible, given about 14% - or roughly 22 million people - currently work from home, according to Pew Research Center.1 In addition, many employers lack the bandwidth or expertise required to accurately complete Form I-9. Experian's enhanced solution helps overcome common challenges, including geographical barriers, scheduling conflicts, and the need for in-person meetings, making the I-9 process more accessible and efficient. "We are committed to providing innovative solutions that meet the evolving needs of our clients," said Anne Obee, Vice President of Experian Employer Services. "By outsourcing the virtual Section 2 completion of I-9, employers can avoid costly penalties, streamline the onboarding process and facilitate a positive hiring experience for new employees while maintaining compliance in this digital age." How it works Employers enrolled in E-Verify can leverage Experian's enhanced I-9 Management solution during onboarding, which gives new hires the option to complete Section 2 of Form I-9 via a brief video call with an expert Experian representative. During the call, new hires present the appropriate documents, allowing an Experian agent specializing in I-9 compliance to finalize Section 2. Upon completion, the form is automatically submitted, ensuring a seamless and compliant process. Experian launched its Employer Services business for employers seeking a better service experience for themselves and their employees. The business offers critical solutions HR, payroll and tax professionals count on.
