Yes. If the employee enters in the first section of the form that they are an individual authorized to work under another status — meaning they’re not a US citizen, a noncitizen US national or a US permanent resident — they will be asked if that alternative work status has an expiration date. If it does, the employer must reverify the I-9 prior to the expiration date listed on the form.
Employers do not need to complete a new Form I-9, but instead may use the form’s Supplement B to record document reverification each time it is required by law. Employers are responsible for monitoring the expiration of any I-9 documents that fall under the category of an individual authorized to work in the US under another status, and for proactively reaching out to these employees before the expiration date to ensure timely reverification.
Since employees will need to once again present documentation to their employer in order to reverify their work authorization, we recommend the employer give at least two weeks’ notice of the I-9 expiration date to the employee.
Reverification is also not required when the following documents expire: US passports, US passport cards, Form I-551 (alien registration receipt cards/permanent resident cards, which are also known as green cards) and List B documents.
Pro tip for employers: Form I-9 was updated on August 1, 2023, and all employers must use that version for new hires as of November 1, 2023. Among the most significant changes to the new Form I-9 are that Sections 1 and 2 are on the same page, the rehire/reverification is on a separate page, there is a new option for virtual I-9 inspection, and there is no need to fill out every box or put N/A.
