I-9 Reverifications Reminder
Employers must complete Section 3 of the I-9 when an employment authorization or documentation of the authorization has expired (reverification). To find if authorization has expired, login to the Electronic I-9 system and click Reverificaton Due from the Quick Search menu.
Departments must reverify that the employee is still authorized to work. USCIS suggests employers remind employees at least 90 days before the required date of reverification that the employee will be required to present a List A or List C document showing authorization to work. This documentation needs to show continued employment authorization on the date of the authorization expiration.
To complete a Section 3 Reverification:
- With the employee physically present, login to the Electronic I-9 system
- Click the Verifier Access to MSU’s online I-9 system link
- Click the Reverification Due link in the Quick Search menu
- Click the Employees Name link under Search Results: Reverification Due. The Employee Detail screen displays
- Click the Section 3 button. The Updating and Reverification window displays
- Do not enter a Rehire Date
- Select the applicable List A or List C documents (see I-9 Quick Tip Guide for typical documents)
- Click Continue. Section 3 – Employer Review and Verification screen displays
- Enter applicable document information and complete Section 3
If an employee’s Citizenship Status changes from Alien Authorized to Work to Permanent Resident, a Section 3 Reverification cannot be completed. A new I-9 will need to be completed instead.
