The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has proposed a new pilot program that would allow select employers that are not enrolled in the E-Verify program to remotely verify employment-eligibility documents.
DHS has announced that on August 1 it will publish a revised Form I-9, and is publishing a final rule allowing remote verification of employment eligibility documents.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) may make permanent a temporary exemption that allows employers to remotely examine employees' identity and employment authorization documents for the Form I-9 over fax, video or email.
