On November 9, 2016, the US Citizenship and Immigration Services published a revised version of the I-9 form. Employers have until January 22, 2017 to start using the new form. The form will be easier to complete on a computer and changes include:
- Section 1 asks for "other last names used" rather than "other names used,"
- Streamlines certification for certain foreign nationals
- 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
