Specifically, the rule would additionally empower the DHS to implement alternative methods for employers to examine employee documents during the <strong>I-9 process.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Background on Form I-9 Documentary Review<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All <strong>U.S. employers<\/strong> should establish the employment eligibility of employees utilizing<strong> form I-9<\/strong>. The form establishes that an employee has given the employer sufficient evidence of the employee\u2019s identity and <strong>employment authorization<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Conventionally, the employee should introduce the physical identity and employment authorization <strong>document\/s<\/strong> to the employer. At the beginning of the<strong> COVID-19 pandemic<\/strong>, however, the DHS gave temporary guidance allowing, in specific conditions, for the employer to review these documents remotely. This flexibility is presently set to expire on <strong>31st October 2022<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Proposed Rule<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The DHS proposed rule would not directly or quickly change the<strong> I-9 process<\/strong>. Rather, whenever executed, the DHS would be granted greater authority to change the requirements. For an employer to check a worker\u2019s identity and <strong>employment authorization documents<\/strong>. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) would have more authority to temporarily alter requirements. For example, during a national health crisis. Also, the DHS would have the option to implement<strong> long-lasting changes <\/strong>to the process, maybe after first exploring such changes via one or more pilot programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-align-right\">[<a href=\"https:\/\/www.h1btransfersusa.com\/blog\/dos-update-on-us-visa-services-at-embassies-and-u-s-consular-posts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span class=\"has-inline-color has-luminous-vivid-orange-color\">DOS Update on U.S. Visa Services at Embassies and U.S. Consular Posts<\/span><\/a>]<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The DHS anticipates that <strong>numerous employers <\/strong>will continue to employ workers remotely, even as the <strong>COVID-19 pandemic <\/strong>recedes. Accepting this rule is implemented, it is sensible to expect. That the DHS might want to find how best to bring the<strong> I-9 process <\/strong>into the digital age. The public has up to 60 days to comment on the proposed rule, until <strong>17th October 2022<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I-9 Documentary Review: The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has proposed a regulation that,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1381,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[20],"tags":[768,618,515,1005,1866,1830,1510,1832,218],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v15.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>DHS Proposal to Consider Alternatives for I-9 Documentary Review<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"DHS proposed rule wouldn&#039;t directly change the I-9 process.
