I-9 Flexibility Due to EAD Delays

USCIS announced on August 19 that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the production of 75,000 Employment Authorization Documents had been delayed.

Therefore, USCIS has allowed applicants to submit an I-797 Approval Notice of form I-765 as a temporary replacement of the EAD as a List C document supporting form I-9.

This rule is only applicable to I-797’s with Notice dates from December 1, 2019, to August 20, 2020. This rule is effective until December 1, 2020.

If the employee submits an I-797 in place of the EAD as a List C document, the employer must reverify the employee by December 1, 2020, when the rule expires. Before that, the employee will need to submit documents from either List A or List C as new employment authorization evidence.

 

EAD签发延迟,移民局放宽I-9申请文件规定

USCIS在8月19日宣布,由于新冠疫情影响,75000张EAD工卡(工作许可证明,I-766)的签发会被延迟。

因此,I-765申请书的批准通知信(I-797)可以暂时在递交I-9就业资格认证表时做为C种类文件(雇佣授权证明)使用,截止至2020年12月1日有效。

这项规定只适用于2019年12月1日及之后,到2020年8月20日签发的I-797。

如果员工提交I-797,雇主也必须在2020年12月1日规定失效前重新认证这些员工。12月1日前,员工必须向股雇主补交新的A种类或C种类文件。
