AGENDA

7. I-9 Review Requirement Changes - Effective May 1st
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has announced that it will relieve employers
from having to review Form I-9 documents in-person with new employees. The change applies
to employers and workplaces that are operating completely remotely. Physical Documentation
review will not be excused if the employee is working onsite. Makes sure to document.
Once normal operations start up again all employees onboarded using remote verification must
report to their employer within three business days for in-person verification of their identity and
eligibility documentation. When the documents have been physically inspected, make sure to
update the files to read "documents physically examined" with the date of inspection in the
Section 2 additional information field.
These changes willbe ineffectuntilMay19th orwithin3days ofthe NationalEmergencybeinglifted.
