WASHINGTON, D.C. – A new I-9 form has been issued by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) as of July 17 of this year. With raids and inspections by the Immigration and Customs (ICE) enforcement arm ramping up be sure you are using the most current edition of the I-9 form.
What you must do:
· This new I-9 must be completed for all new hires starting September 18, 2017.
· It is not necessary to complete a new I-9 using this form for existing employees with a prior version I-9 on file.
· The storage and retention rules for I-9’s remain the same.
