Description

On May 4th, 2023 U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced that employers will have 30 days to comply with Form I-9 employment eligibility verification physical document examination requirements when COVID-19 flexibility end on July 31, 2023.

 

There will be no more extensions! Employers will have 30 days to review all the documents used during the Covid Pandemic flexibility decision on March 20, 2020.

 

While the emergency COVID-19-related I-9 flexibility is ending, DHS is still considering alternative procedures for examining I-9 documents. On August 18, 2022, DHS issued a proposed rule on this topic and is reviewing all the comments it received.

 

Why should you attend?

For at least a year, DHS and immigration attorneys have been encouraging employers who have been using the temporary flexibility to prepare for the end of that program. On May 1, 2023, the White House announced that the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency would end on May 11, 2023, thus means that DHS has considered Normal Operations to be resumed. Now, with less than a few weeks to go, all Employers must prepare for compliance.

 

Session Highlights:

  • Learn what other requirements are part of the decision.
  • Learn how best practice is when reviewing documents before the August 30, 2023 Deadline.
  • Learn how the required Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) by DHS can help create more flexibility in the future

  • Learn if the Hybrid workforce is eligible for the requirements.
  • Learn what options Employers have to review documents remotely.
