New Form I-9 Rules Effective Nov. 1: Employers Must Utilize 08/01/2023 Edition for General Use, Puerto Rico Gets Revised Spanish Edition.
Starting November 1, businesses across the United States must use the latest edition of Form I-9, titled Employment Eligibility Verification, dated 08/01/2023. This updated form ensures compliance with current regulations and standards for verifying employees’ eligibility to work in the country.
In a notable development, a revised Spanish edition of Form I-9, also bearing the edition date 08/01/2023, has been introduced. However, it is important to note that this revised Spanish edition is exclusively designated for use in Puerto Rico. Employers in Puerto Rico and others seeking translation aid may utilize this version to facilitate accurate and comprehensive employment eligibility verification.
These changes reflect ongoing efforts to enhance the accuracy and accessibility of employment verification processes, emphasizing the importance of using the most up-to-date forms to meet legal requirements.
