Dear SirlMadam:

Section 274A of the hnmigration and Nationality Act, as amended by the hnmigration Reform
and Control Act of 1986, requires employers to hire only United States citizens and aliens who
are authorized to work in the United States. Employers must verify employment eligibility of
persons hired after November 6, 1986 using the Employment Eligibility Verification Form 1-9.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) regulations require the provision oftbree
days notice prior to conducting a review ofan employer's Forms 1-9. This letter serves as
advance notice that ICE has scheduled a review of your forms for November 25,2009. You
may, however, waive the three-day period, should you wish to do so, by annotating and signing
the bottom ofthis letter and advising this office of your decision.

During the review, Forensic Auditor Timothy Garreis, (206) 442-2234, will discuss the
requirements ofthe law with you and inspect your Forms 1-9. The purpose of this review is to
assess your compliance with the provisions ofthe law. ICE will make every effort to conduct
the review of records in a timely manner so as not to impede your normal business routine.


                                             Aaron Wilson
                                             Assistant Special Agent-in-Charge

I wish to waive the three day notice to which I am entitled by regulation.

(printed Name)                        (Signature)                   (Date)
