Section Three

  • Employers must reverify employment eligibility of their employees on or before the expiration date recorded in Section 1 of the I-9.
  • Employers are to examine any document that reflects the employee's authorization to work in the US.
  • If an employee is rehired within three years of the date the I-9 form was originally completed, and the employee is still eligible to be employed on the same basis as previously indicated on the form, a reverification of the I-9 may be fulfilled by completing Section 3 of the I-9 form.
  • If the original I-9 is more than three years old, a new I-9 must be completed.
  • Section 3 is used to reverify or update bullet. The I-9 can be reverified, if the original I-9 is not over three years old.
  • Original I-9 forms should only be reverified once, do not keep making a copy of the original I-9 and reverifying. Use a new form.
  • If updating the I-9 with new documentation, the original I-9 may be used. A new form should be used after the original is updated.
  • If there is a break in employment, a new I-9 may be used with the new start date.
