For reverification, an employee must present an unexpired document(s) (or a receipt) from either List A or List C showing he or

she is still authorized to work. You CANNOT require the employee to present a particular document from List A or List C. The

employee is also not required to show the same type of document that he or she presented previously. See specific instructions

on how to complete Section 3 below.

Rehires

If you rehire an employee within three years from the date that the Form I-9 was previously executed, you may either rely on

the employee’s previously executed Form I-9 or complete a new Form I-9.

If you choose to rely on a previously completed Form I-9, follow these guidelines.

• If the employee remains employment authorized as indicated on the previously executed Form I-9, the employee does

not need to provide any additional documentation. Provide in Section 3 the employee’s rehire date, any name changes if

applicable, and sign and date the form.

• If the previously executed Form I-9 indicates that the employee’s employment authorization from Section 1 or

employment authorization documentation from Section 2 that is subject to reverification has expired, then

reverification of employment authorization is required in Section 3 in addition to providing the rehire date. If the

previously executed Form I-9 is not the current version of the form, you must complete Section 3 on the current

version of the form.

• If you already used Section 3 of the employee’s previously executed Form I-9, but are rehiring the employee within

three years of the original execution of Form I-9, you may complete Section 3 on a new Form I-9 and attach it to the

previously executed form.

Employees rehired after three years of original execution of the Form I-9 must complete a new Form I-9.

Complete each block in Section 3 as follows:

Block A - New Name: If an employee who is being reverified or rehired has also changed his or her name since originally

completing Section 1 of this form, complete this block with the employee’s new name. Enter only the part of the name that has

changed, for example: if the employee changed only his or her last name, enter the last name in the Last Name field in this

Block, then enter N/A in the First Name and Middle Initial fields. If the employee has not changed his or her name, enter N/A in

each field of Block A.

Block B - Date of Rehire: Complete this block if you are rehiring an employee within three years of the date Form I-9 was

originally executed. Enter the date of rehire in this field. Enter N/A in this field if the employee is not being rehired.

Block C - Complete this block if you are reverifying expiring or expired employment authorization or employment

authorization documentation of a current or rehired employee. Enter the information from the List A or List C document(s) (or

receipt) that the employee presented to reverify his or her employment authorization. All documents must be unexpired.

Document Title: Enter the title of the List A or C document (or receipt) the employee has presented to show continuing

employment authorization in this field.

Document Number: Enter the document number, if any, of the document you entered in the Document Title field

exactly as it appears on the document. Enter N/A if the document does not have a number.

Expiration Date (if any) (mm/dd/yyyy): Enter the expiration date, if any, of the document you entered in the

Document Title field as a 2-digit month, 2-digit day, and 4-digit year (mm/dd/yyyy). If the document does not contain an

expiration date, enter N/A in this field.

Signature of Employer or Authorized Representative: The person who completes Section 3 must sign in this field. If you

used a form obtained from the USCIS website, you must print Section 3 of the form to sign your name in this field. By signing

Section 3, you attest under penalty of perjury (28 U.S.C. §1746) that you have examined the documents presented by the

employee, that the document(s) reasonably appear to be genuine and to relate to the employee named, that to the best of your

knowledge the employee is authorized to work in the United States, that the information you entered in Section 3 is complete,

true and correct to the best of your knowledge, and that you are aware that you may face severe penalties provided by law and

may be subject to criminal prosecution for knowingly and willfully making false statements or knowingly accepting false

documentation when completing this form.
