I-9 Expiration Date Extended

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has extended the expiration date of Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, to 05/31/2027.

Employers must use the Form I-9 with the edition date of 08/1/23, which may have an expiration date of either 07/31/2026 or 05/31/2027. Either form may be used until its respective expiration date, USCIS said. However, downloads from the Form I-9 download page will only include the new 05/31/2027 expiration date.

USCIS said that employers “are encouraged to update their electronic Forms I-9 systems to use the 05/31/2027, expiration date as soon as possible and must do so no later than July 31, 2026, the expiration date on the previously issued Form I-9.”
