[Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) On March 8, 2013, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced the revised Employment Eligibility Verification, Form I-9, and published a notice in the Federal Register. In the initial announcement, USCIS described when employers can no longer use prior versions of Form I-9. USCIS **incorrectly described** the effective date as being **after **May 7, 2013. USCIS published a [correction notice](https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gpo.gov%2Ffdsys%2Fpkg%2FFR-2013-04-09%2Fpdf%2F2013-08224.pdf) in the Federal Register. This notice corrects the error and clarifies that **beginning May 7, 2013, employers may no longer use prior versions of the Form I-9**. The new form bears a revision date of 03/08/13. According to USCIS, "although employers should begin using the 03/08/13 dated form right away, older forms dated 02/02/09 and 08/07/09 will be accepted until May 7, 2013. Beginning May 7, 2013, only the 03/08/13 will be accepted. The revision date is on the lower left corner of the form." Download the updated [English](https://promotion-payroll-hr.pinnaclehro.com/hs-fs/file-30067401-pdf/docs/i-9.pdf?hsLang=en-us) and [Spanish](https://promotion-payroll-hr.pinnaclehro.com/hs-fs/file-30067474-pdf/docs/i-9_spanish.pdf?hsLang=en-us) versions of the new Form I-9. The Spanish version is for use in Puerto Rico only. Spanish-speaking employers and employees in the 50 states, Washington, D.C., and other U.S. territories may use the Spanish version for reference, but must complete the English version of the form.
