As Hire Image previously reported, the Form I-9 physical presence requirements were deferred through July 19th due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In an effort to assist employers with filling out the form during this time, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) issued various examples. These examples include recommendations for how the Form I-9 should be notated when remotely inspecting employment authorization and identity documents.
The following examples should be followed when notating Form I-9 in these circumstances:
- Completing Section 2 When Inspecting Documents Remotely
- Performing Physical Inspection Once Normal Operations Resume
- Performing Physical Inspection by a Different Person Once Normal Operations Resume
- Notating Remote and Physical Inspection for Reverification
- Entering a List B Document Extended by Issuing Authority in Section 2
- Entering an Expired List B Document in Section 2
- Updating Section 2 When Employee Presents Unexpired Document Once Normal Operations Resume
