Today, the interim final rule revising the Form I-9 and list of acceptable documents was published in the Federal Register with an effective date of February 2, 2009. As previously reported , the new rule calls for minor changes to the Form I-9, revises the list of acceptable documents and stipulates that employers can no longer accept expired documents. The entire rule is available online in PDF and also includes an “informational” or sample copy of the new Form I-9 that will be made available to employers on the USCIS web site. Until the new rule goes into effect, employers should continue using the currently valid June 5, 2007 version.
