The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services has published a new version of the Form I-9: Employment Eligibility Verification. The current form had expired August 31, 2019, but employees were advised to continue using it until a new form became available.
For now, employers may use the expired version or the new version of Form I-9. Starting May 1, 2020, employers must exclusively use the new form. The paper form has no revisions and the online version has only minor changes.
Employers must complete Form I-9 for each individual they hire in the U.S. This includes citizens and non-citizens. Both the employee and employer must complete the form. Employers should retain Form I-9 for a designated period and make it available for inspection by authorized government officers.
