Employers Will No Longer Be Allowed to Accept Expired Documents for Form I-9

Written on .

As of May 1, 2022, employers should not accept expired List B documents (e.g., driver's license) as proof of identity for purposes of Form I-9.

If employers completed Form I-9 between May 1, 2020, and April 30, 2022, using an expired List B document, employers need to update Form I-9 with an unexpired document from List A or List B by July 31, 2022.  If the employee is no longer employed, no action is needed.
