U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services has extended the deadline on using the current Form I-9.
USCIS has verified that the current version of the I-9 — dated February 2, 2009 — will remain valid beyond what was suppose to be its June 30, 2009, expiration date.
USCIS is in the process of reviewing and releasing a new version of the I-9. Until the new form is released, employers must continue to use the current version of the form to confirm employees’ authorization to work in the United States.
The current English-language version of Form I-9 can be downloaded in PDF format here.
Note: The Spanish version of the form is available here, but its official use is limited only to employers in Puerto Rico. All other employers may use it only as a reference or to assist employees, but not for official use.
