02/02/09 - Delayed Effective Date for Revised Form I-9
|
| |
Sometimes it just doesn't make sense, but don't use the new I-9 just yet!
Regardless of what you may have read or heard earlier, an announcement today, February 2, 2009, has changed the effective date for using the new I-9. Organizations’ use of the revised Form I-9 has been delayed until April 3, 2009 by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announcement issued this morning. The change in the effective date for implementing the revised form now makes it a risk for employers to switch over prior to April 3rd. Civil monetary penalties may be charged for using the revised Form I-9 prior to its effective date. Until April 3rd or another USCIS announcement, organizations should continue using the current Form I-9. If you have any questions regarding compliance with the I-9 requirements, please contact HR Answers, Inc. at 503-885-9815.
