Revised Form 1-9 Issued

 

By John J. Egbert

The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) published a revised Form I-9 on March 8, 2013. Employers must complete a Form I-9 for each employee hired in the United States.  Employer should immediately begin using the revised form.  Earlier versions (dated 02/02/09 and 08/07/09) may also be used, but only until May 7, 2013. After that date, employers must use only the newly-revised form. The revised form may be found on the government’s website at:http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-9.pdf
