Following the discontinuation of the COVID-19 I-9 document review policy on July 31, some employers have experienced difficulties in adapting to physical document review.
However, employers enrolled in the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's E-Verify program retain the ability to perform remote document reviews for employees hired on or after August 1, incorporating new procedures and an updated I-9 form.
There is also potential for smaller employers that are not enrolled with E-Verify to participate in a pilot program that would allow them to utilize remote document review for I-9 completion. More details regarding the pilot program will likely become available in October 2023.
In this article published in HR Dive, Partner Daniel Brown discusses the announcement and alternative document review processes amidst the policy shift, outlining the various implications of these changes.
