USCIS recently announced that next week, on August 1, 2023, it will publish a revised version of Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification. Employers may continue to use the older Form I-9 (Rev. 10/21/19) through October 31, 2023. After that date, they will be subject to penalties if they use the older form. The new version will not be available for downloading until August 1.
Among the changes made to the new I-9 form is a checkbox employers enrolled in E-Verify can use to indicate they remotely examined identity and employment authorization documents under an alternative procedure authorized by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). This change was made by issuance of a DHS final rule in response to the end of temporary COVID-19 flexibilities on July 31.
Additional changes to the revised Form I-9 include:
Please contact the immigration attorney at LHSCD working on your case with any questions about this new I-9 Form. Or, to set up a consultation with one of our attorneys, please fill out our Consultation Request Form.
