As of Friday, April 3, 2009, employers may no longer use prior versions of the Form I-9 Employment Eligibility Verification. Rather, the revised Form I-9 (Rev. 2/02/09) is now in effect for all U.S. employers (the revision date is printed on the lower right-hand corner of the form).
As you will recall from prior blog posts listed below, the interim final rule, published on December 17, 2008, revised the list of documents deemed acceptable for Form I-9 Employment Eligibility Verification.
Should you have any questions regarding the new form or your Company’s obligations to remain I-9 compliant, please do not hesitate to contact us.
