U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services has extended the Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, expiration date to May 31, 2027.

Key Points:

• USCIS updated the Form I-9 that can be downloaded from its website to have an expiration date of May 31, 2027.
• Employers must use the Aug. 1, 2023, edition of Form I-9, which may have an expiration date of either July 31, 2026, or May 31, 2027. Either form may be used until its respective expiration date.
• Employers should update their electronic Form I-9 systems to use the May 31, 2027, expiration date. This version of the form is required as of July 31, 2026, but employers are encouraged to use it as soon as possible.
