I-9

As of July 31, 2023, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has ended the COVID-19 Flexibilities that permitted virtual inspection of identity and work authorization documents for the I-9 process.

Additionally, a new version of Form I-9 is available as of August 1, 2023. If you’re confused about the details of these recent changes, make sure to attend our webinar on August 10, 2023, at 11:00 am PT, where we will discuss:
