  1. Original Date Announced

    April 2, 2025

    USCIS announced that it has made changes to Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, to align with statutory language, and updated the DHS Privacy Notice. The revised Form I-9 with an edition date 01/20/25 and an expiration date 05/31/2027 is now available for download, although multiple previous editions remain valid until their respective expiration dates. USCIS states that key updates include:

    • Renaming the fourth checkbox in Section 1 to “An alien authorized to work”
    • Revising the descriptions of two List B documents in the Lists of Acceptable Documents
    • Adding appropriate statutory language and a revised DHS Privacy Notice to the instructions

    Starting April 3, 2025, E-Verify and E-Verify+ will have updated the Citizenship Status selection during case creation to reflect this statutory language. The selection “A noncitizen authorized to work” will be updated to “An alien authorized to work.”
