U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has released a new version of the Form I-9 (dated 11/14/2016 N). Employers must use only this version beginning on January 22, 2017 but you can begin using it now. According to USCIS, some of its key changes include:
- Section 1 – Now asks for "other last names used" rather than "other names used"
- The addition of prompts to ensure information is entered correctly
- The ability to enter multiple preparers and translators
- A dedicated area for including additional information rather than having to add it in the margins
- A supplemental page for the preparer/translator
