When an employee's work authorization expires, employers must complete Section 3 reverification before the expiration date using either the current I-9 form version or a standalone Section 3 supplement. The employee must present new documentation from either List A (showing both identity and work authorization) or List C (showing work authorization only)—employers cannot require specific documents and must accept any valid documentation the employee chooses to present from the acceptable list. Common scenarios requiring reverification include Employment Authorization Documents (EAD cards) expiring after initial hire, temporary work visas reaching their end date, Temporary Protected Status (TPS) renewals, DACA work permits requiring renewal, and conditional permanent resident cards (2-year green cards) needing replacement with 10-year permanent resident cards.

Missing reverification deadlines is the #1 I-9 audit violation, appearing in 67% of ICE enforcement cases with penalties of $288 to $2,861 per unreverified employee. Employers must track work authorization expiration dates proactively—ideally 90 days before expiration—and cannot continue employing workers whose authorization has lapsed, even by a single day, without completed reverification. The reverification process requires the employee to present unexpired documents, the employer or authorized representative to physically examine them (unless using approved remote verification through December 2025), and proper completion of Section 3 fields including document title, number, and expiration date. Employers should maintain tickler systems, automated HR reminders, or calendar alerts for every employee with temporary work authorization to ensure timely reverification and avoid the severe consequences of employing unauthorized workers after status expiration.

Lake Mead Mobile Notary provides I-9 reverification services throughout Las Vegas, Henderson, and Clark County, helping employers maintain compliance when employee work authorization expires. Our mobile notaries travel to employee locations to examine updated documentation, complete Section 3 accurately, and provide employers with properly reverified I-9 forms that meet federal standards. This service is especially valuable for businesses with distributed workforces, remote employees, or limited HR capacity who need professional assistance tracking and completing reverifications before deadlines. We also offer reverification tracking consultations that help employers identify upcoming expiration dates and implement proactive compliance systems.

No, employers cannot use outdated I-9 forms after March 31, 2025. The new Form I-9 version becomes mandatory on March 31, 2025, and using any previous version after this date results in automatic paperwork violations with penalties ranging from $288 to $2,861 per form regardless of whether the old form was otherwise completed correctly. USCIS issues updated I-9 forms periodically to add security features, clarify instructions, update acceptable document lists, and incorporate regulatory changes—and employers must transition to the new version by the enforcement date printed on the form itself.

The March 31, 2025 deadline applies to all new hires, rehires, and reverifications (Section 3 updates) processed on or after that date. Forms completed before March 31, 2025 using the previous version remain valid and do not need to be redone, but any I-9 completed on or after the deadline must use the updated form. Employers should immediately download the new I-9 from uscis.gov/i-9, update HR systems and onboarding software, train staff on any new fields or instructions, and dispose of old blank forms to prevent accidental use. During ICE audits, use of an outdated form is one of the most common violations and demonstrates lack of due diligence in maintaining compliant employment practices.

Lake Mead Mobile Notary provides authorized representative I-9 verification services using the current, compliant I-9 form version for businesses throughout Las Vegas Convention Center, Henderson corporate offices, and remote employee locations across Nevada. Our mobile notaries stay current with all USCIS form updates, examine documents in person per federal requirements, and complete Section 2 accurately to eliminate costly paperwork violations.
