What happened?

On June 20, 2025, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued new guidance for E-Verify employers regarding the revocation of Employment Authorization Documents (EADs).


Overview:

Status Change – Report Now Required: This update introduces a new compliance requirement and marks a significant shift in how employers must monitor and respond to changes in employee work authorization.

  • E-Verify employers must now generate a “Status Change Report” to identify employees whose EADs have been revoked.
  • This replaces the previous Case Alert system for EAD revocations.
  • Case Alerts will continue only for expiring documents, not revoked ones.


Why This Matters

  • DHS has begun revoking EADs for individuals whose Temporary Protected Status (TPS) or humanitarian parole (e.g., CHNV programs) has ended.
  • Revoked EADs may still appear valid, but the individual is no longer authorized to work.
  • Revocations from April 9 to June 13, 2025, are reflected in reports available as of June 20, 2025.


Compliance Considerations

  • Expect more cases where EADs appear valid but have been revoked.

  • Revoked EADs may still appear unexpired, but the individual is no longer authorized to work.
    Some employees may be authorized to work under a different status or provision of law.


Enforcement & Best Practices

  • DHS and ICE are expected to increase the number of I-9 and E-Verify enforcement.
  • Employers may consider:
  • Conducting internal audits of Form I-9 records.
    • Providing training to HR and management teams.
    • Monitoring the DHS EAD Revocation Guidance page for updates.


Additional Information:

Employer Action Steps

  1. Access the Report: (1)Log in to E-Verify, (2) Go to “Reports”, (3) Select “Status Change Report”.
  1. Reverify Employment Authorization:
  • Use Form I-9, Supplement B, for any employee listed in the report or who voluntarily discloses their EAD has been revoked.
    • Do not create a new E-Verify case.
  1. Acceptable Documentation:
  • Only accept unexpired documents from List A or List C.
    • Do not accept a revoked EAD, even if it appears unexpired.
  1. Timely Reverification: Complete reverification within a reasonable time—DHS suggests using the 10 federal working days standard.
