The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is revoking Employment Authorization Documents (EADs) for certain aliens whose parole has been terminated. These revocations may be on a case-by-case basis or may be for groups, such as aliens paroled through the Processes for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans (CHNV). Your organization may have one or more employees whose EAD was recently revoked by DHS. E‑Verify developed a new report to help you identify if any of your E‑Verify cases was created with an EAD that has been revoked.
What Employers Need to Know
- DHS sent direct notifications to certain individuals who were paroled into the United States terminating their parole and revoking their parole-based EADs.
- The new Status Change Report allows E-Verify employers to review their aggregated case data for any employees who presented an EAD for employment verification which has now been revoked by DHS. The data in this report will be regularly updated as DHS revokes EADs.
What E‑Verify Employers Should Do
- Contact us periodically (we recommend quarterly) to request the current Status Change Report for your organization.
- We will continue to notify you when we become aware of a change to your Status Change Report; however, it is your responsibility to monitor the report when you have hired employees who presented an EAD.
- Use Form I‑9, Supplement B to immediately begin reverifying each current employee whose EAD the Status Change Report indicated was revoked, and complete all reverifications within a reasonable amount of time.
- Do not send the employee’s I-9 or Supplement B to us for reverification in E-Verify.
About Supplement B Reverification
Use Form I‑9, Supplement B to immediately begin reverifying each current employee whose EAD the Status Change Report indicated was revoked, and complete all reverifications within a reasonable amount of time.
The employee must provide unexpired documentation from List A or List C of the Lists of Acceptable Documents. Do not reverify identity documents (List B). During this process, you must allow employees to choose which acceptable documentation to present for reverification. You may not accept the now-revoked EAD, based on the Status Change Report, even if that EAD appears unexpired. You cannot continue employing a person who does not provide proof of current employment authorization. For more information on reverification of employees, please visit the Completing Supplement B, Reverification and Rehires (formerly Section 3) page on I-9 Central.
For guidance on these cases, please visit the EAD Revocation Guidance For E-Verify Employers web page.
