Form I-9 Verification During EAD Production Delays Due to COVID-19

未收到EAD?可以暂时使用I-797来提交I-9!

摘要:美国公民及移民服务局授权I-797 EAD批准通知书的临时使用,该文件确定了I-9用途的就业许可(但没有身份)。要符合资格,I-797批准通知必须具有“通知日期为2019年12月1日或之后,直到2020年8月20日 ”。雇主将必须在2020年12月1日之前用实际的EAD(或其他合适的文件组合)对I 9表格文件中的员工进行重新验证

雇用非移民雇员时,他或她需要完成I-9就业资格验证,并需要提交EAD(就业授权文件)。但是,如果您的EAD卡被批准但尚未收到该卡怎么办?由于COVID-19,美国公民及移民服务局(USCIS)最近宣布了在EAD生产延误期间允许员工提交I-797批准通知而不是EAD来填写I-9表格文件。如果您打算通过OPT或H-1B开始工作,但是由于EAD的生产延迟而不能填写I-9表格,那么此公告对您可能是一个救命稻草。

… employees may use Form I-797, Notice of Actionwith a Notice date on or after December 1, 2019 through and including August 20, 2020 informing an applicant of approval of an Application for Employment Authorization (Form I-765) as a Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, List C #7 document that establishes employment authorization issued by the Department of Homeland Security pursuant to 8 C.F.R. 274a.2(b)(1)(v)(C)(7), even though the Notice states it is not evidence of employment authorization.  Employees may present their Form I-797 Notice of Action showing approval of their I-765 application as a list C document for Form I-9 compliance until December 1, 2020.

FORM I-9 VERIFICATION DURING EAD PRODUCTION DELAYS DUE TO COVID-19

内容摘要


EAD派送延迟

当非移民完成I-765表格的就业授权文件(EAD)申请时,他们将获得I-797收据。通常,这一张收据仅表明USCIS已收到申请。然后,EAD申请人将收到第二份I-797,其中说明他们的申请被批准还是被拒绝。

甚至在美国公民及移民服务局宣布其接受I-797表格的列外之前,由于许多原因还观察到EAD的生产延迟,其中包括与印刷公司的合同终止,因办公室关闭而积压的工作。

如果您打算通过OPT或H-1B工作,但还没有收到EAD卡,怎么办?尤其是考虑到失业钟是从OPT开始日期开始滴答作响,EAD卡生产推迟影响了许多F-1学生。USCIS的更新条约对于OPT和H-1B申请人确实是个好消息,因为他们可以提供I-797批准通知书以证明其I-765已获得批准。那么您将怎样使用?

I-9表格验证

如果I-797表格上的通知日期为2019年12月1日或之后至2020年8月20日(含),则您有资格获得此临时例外。您的I-797批准通知可以作为List CI 9表单文件提交。此例外仅适用于I-9表格文件。I-797绝不可以作为员工身份的证明。

THE I-797 NOTICE OF ACTION DESCRIBED ABOVE DOES NOT PROVE EVIDENCE OF IDENTITY OR SERVE AS A LIST A DOCUMENT ESTABLISHING BOTH IDENTITY AND EMPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION OR A LIST B DOCUMENT ESTABLISHING IDENTITY FOR FORM I-9 PURPOSES.

当使用I-797批准通知来代替EAD卡的员工在之后收到EAD时,她或他需要告知雇主以进行重新验证。美国公民及移民服务局(USCIS)鼓励雇主在2020年12月1日之前对所有利用此临时例外的员工进行重新验证。

By December 1, 2020, employers must reverify employees who presented this Form I-797 Notice of Action as a List C document. These employees will need to present their employers with new evidence of employment authorization from either List A or List C.

We encourage employers to accept new EADs presented by employees as soon as they receive them from USCIS prior to December 1, 2020, to satisfy the reverification requirement.  However, it is the employees’ choice whether to present their new EADs, or a different document from either List A or List C.

因此,如果您担心EAD的生产延迟,请首先查看I-797批准通知。如果您有资格,请与您的雇主联系并发送USCIS链接,且按照流程提交I-797而不是EAD。
