This Notice contains the dates of both the prior version and the new version of Form I–9 that employers may use, as well as the date when the prior version will become obsolete. DATES: Form I–9, Employment Eligibility Verification, with a version date of ‘‘(Rev. 08/01/23)’’ is available for use beginning August 1, 2023.

The public can also email the Form I–9 Contact Center at i9central@dhs.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Jkt 259001 Employers and certain agricultural recruiters and referrers for a fee (referred to collectively as employers in this notice) must verify the identity and employment authorization of each individual they hire for employment in the United States on Form I–9, Employment Eligibility Verification. The new Form I–9 contains two sections and two supplements: Section 1 of the form collects, at the time of hire, identifying information about the employee (and preparer or translator if used), and requires the employee to attest to whether the employee is a U.S. citizen, noncitizen national, lawful permanent resident, or noncitizen authorized to work in the United States. Section 2 of the form collects, within three days of the employee’s hire, identifying information about the employer and information regarding the employee’s identity and employment authorization. The employee must present original documentation PO 00000 Frm 00048 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 47891 evidencing the employee’s identity and employment authorization, which the employer must review. Supplement A, Preparer and/or Translator Certification for Section 1, is completed when employees have preparers and/or translators assist them in completing Section 1 of Form I–9. Supplement B, Reverification and Rehire (formerly Section 3), is primarily used to verify the continued employment authorization of the employee. This Supplement is completed prior to the date that the employee’s employment authorization and/or employment authorization documentation recorded in either Section 1 or Section 2 of the form expires, if applicable. This Supplement may also be used if the employee is rehired within 3 years of the date of the initial completion of the form and to record a name change. Employers must maintain Forms I–9 for as long as an individual works for the employer and for the required retention period after the termination of an individual’s employment (either 3 years after the date of hire or 1 year after the date employment ended, whichever is later). Also, employers must make their employees’ Forms I–9 available for inspection upon request by officers of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Immigrant and Employee Rights Section (IER) in the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division, and the Department of Labor. An employer’s failure to ensure proper completion and retention of Forms I–9 may subject the employer to civil money penalties, and, in some cases, criminal penalties. On March 30, 2022, USCIS published a 60-day information collection notice in the Federal Register at 87 FR 18377 inviting the public to comment on a proposed revision of the Form I–9 and renewal request of the information collection to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. USCIS received and responded to 184 comments on the 60-day notice. On July 8, 2022, USCIS published a second notice at 87 FR 40857 inviting the public to comment on the proposed revision of the Form I–9 for a 30-day period. USCIS received and responded to 72 comments on the 30-day notice. On January 10, 2023, OMB approved a three-year extension without change of the updated Form I–9. See OMB No. 1615–0047 at www.reginfo.gov. Concurrent with this process, DHS issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM), Optional Alternatives to the Physical Document Examination Associated with Employment Eligibility Verification (Form I–9), seeking E:\FR\FM\25JYN1.SGM 25JYN1
