Beginning March 19, 2020, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) allowed discretion for employers and employees to defer physical presence requirements associated with the Form I-9. Originally set to last for 60 days, this flexibility has been extended by another 30 days in an abundance of caution as the COVID-19 pandemic persists.

For more details regarding the permissible Form I-9 work-around process, please see our original article.

If you have any additional questions, please contact your sales executive, account manager, or our customer service team.
