New I-9 Form Released
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has released the new Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Form. This is the first substantial form revision since 1997.
The new I-9 form reduces the number of documents that employers can accept from newly hired employees to verify employment eligibility. All newer employment authorization forms with photo id are now added to the list of acceptable documents.
All employer's are required to obtain a completed form I-9 and to review the newly hired nanny's supporting documents at time of hire. Effective November 7, 2007 the only acceptable version of the form for employer's use is marked with the June 5, 2007 revision date. The form must be retained by the employer for 3 years after its signing date or one year after the end of employment, whichever date is later.
The new Form I-9 may be downloaded from the 4NannyTaxes.com website.
