USCIS Delays Rule Changing List of Documents Acceptable to Verify Employment Eligibility

The delay will provide DHS with an opportunity for further consideration of the rule and also allows the public additional time to submit comments. A notice announcing the delay was transmitted today to the Federal Register. In addition, USCIS has reopened the public comment period for 30 days, until March 4, 2009. The interim final rule will amend regulations governing the types of acceptable identity and employment authorization documents employees may present to their employers for completion of the Form I-9. Under the interim rule, employers will no longer be able to accept expired documents to verify employment authorization on the Form I-9.

The interim final rule and an informational copy of the revised Form I-9 will continue to be available for public comment at www.regulations.gov.
