Another I-9 Reminder

All of you well-educated, information-saturated folks know the new I-9 Form is effective 4/3, right? OK, then.

This one has the 6/30/09 expiration date, just like the old one. But it also has the critical 2/2/09 revision date (visible in the lower right-hand corner of the form.) Looks like you'll have to replace these new forms, too. (The expiration date is near! Alert the media!) So, you can look forward to still more newsletters and blogs nagging you about this critical issue facing employers. If you need one of these new forms, find it here.

I-9 Form Changes

The USCIS has delayed implementation of a new I-9 form containing new employment eligibility documentation requirements. The January 30, 2009 announcement is here. Under the current schedule, a new I-9 form will be required on April 3, 2009. The Jan. 30 order extends the comment period for proposed regulations issued in November 2008.
You can see the new proposed regulations and the sample new I-9 form and instructions here.
