The lack of an updated I-9 Employment Eligibility Verification Form has caused confusion for some employers who have observed that the latest Form I-9 has an effective date through October 31, 2022 only. Although the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) indicated that an updated Form I-9 will be coming soon, it has still not released the new version, which is anticipated to have some significant alterations per the USCIS’ proposed changes that include restructuring/compressing the form and reducing the length of the instructions section. In any event, employers may, for now, continue using the expired Form I-9s until further notice.
