Yes, remote I-9 verification remains allowed through December 31, 2025, under the Department of Homeland Security's extended flexible verification policy implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic and continuously renewed for employers with fully remote workforces or employees working exclusively outside traditional office settings. However, employers must still conduct physical document inspection either within 3 business days of the employee's first day of work or when normal in-person operations resume, whichever occurs first. The remote alternative procedure permits employers to inspect employee identity and employment authorization documents via live video conference using tools like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or similar platforms, but this is a temporary accommodation, not a permanent replacement for in-person verification.

The extension applies only to employers who operate entirely remotely or whose employees work at locations where no authorized representative can physically meet them within the required 3-day window. Employers using remote verification must retain documentation of the video conference, screenshots of documents examined, and detailed notes explaining why physical inspection was not possible during the initial verification period. When in-person operations resume or when the employee works at a location where physical document inspection becomes feasible, employers must conduct the physical examination and add a notation to Section 2 documenting the date of physical inspection. Failure to complete the physical follow-up inspection triggers the same penalties as incomplete I-9 forms—$288 to $2,861 per violation.

With properly notarized NVL-003 Dormant Vehicle Affidavit, Nevada DMV reinstatement costs $252 total. Without NVL-003 (because you drove during the lapse), you face operating without insurance court penalties of $500-$1,000 for first offense, $1,000-$1,500 for second offense within 3 years, plus the $252 DMV reinstatement fee, totaling $752-$1,752.

This cost difference explains why NVL-003 generates so much discussion across insurance forums. The savings are substantial, but only if your situation legitimately qualifies (vehicle was truly not driven during suspension).

💰 Complete Cost Breakdown by Scenario:

📋 What's Included in the $252 DMV Reinstatement Fee: This is Nevada's standard registration reinstatement fee when insurance compliance is restored. It applies whether you use NVL-003 or pay court penalties. The difference is that NVL-003 lets you avoid the additional $500-$1,500 operating without insurance fines by certifying the vehicle was never driven.

⚠️ Why NVL-003 Must Be Notarized: DMV requires proper jurat notarization because the affidavit is your sworn legal defense against operating without insurance charges. Without notarization, DMV rejects the form and requires the court penalty route. Mobile notary service costs $45 for NVL-003 notarization, providing immediate savings of $455-$1,405 compared to the operating penalty route.

💡 The Math for Honest Drivers: Insurance payment failed, you parked the car immediately, used rideshare for 2 weeks until you noticed the lapse. Your costs with NVL-003: New insurance ($400-800 for 6 months) + NVL-003 notarization ($45) + DMV reinstatement ($252) = $697-$1,097 total. Without NVL-003 you'd pay: Same insurance + court fine ($500-$1,000) + DMV fee ($252) = $1,152-$1,752. The notarized NVL-003 saves you $455-$655 by documenting that you acted responsibly when you discovered the lapse.
