No, employers cannot use outdated I-9 forms after March 31, 2025. The new Form I-9 version becomes mandatory on March 31, 2025, and using any previous version after this date results in automatic paperwork violations with penalties ranging from $288 to $2,861 per form regardless of whether the old form was otherwise completed correctly. USCIS issues updated I-9 forms periodically to add security features, clarify instructions, update acceptable document lists, and incorporate regulatory changes—and employers must transition to the new version by the enforcement date printed on the form itself.

The March 31, 2025 deadline applies to all new hires, rehires, and reverifications (Section 3 updates) processed on or after that date. Forms completed before March 31, 2025 using the previous version remain valid and do not need to be redone, but any I-9 completed on or after the deadline must use the updated form. Employers should immediately download the new I-9 from uscis.gov/i-9, update HR systems and onboarding software, train staff on any new fields or instructions, and dispose of old blank forms to prevent accidental use. During ICE audits, use of an outdated form is one of the most common violations and demonstrates lack of due diligence in maintaining compliant employment practices.

Lake Mead Mobile Notary provides authorized representative I-9 verification services using the current, compliant I-9 form version for businesses throughout Las Vegas Convention Center, Henderson corporate offices, and remote employee locations across Nevada. Our mobile notaries stay current with all USCIS form updates, examine documents in person per federal requirements, and complete Section 2 accurately to eliminate costly paperwork violations.

Both staffing agencies and client companies share I-9 responsibility, but the initial completion obligation typically falls on the staffing agency as the legal employer of record. When a staffing agency places a temporary or contract worker at a client company, the agency must complete the employee's I-9 form (Sections 1 and 2) within the standard 3-business-day timeframe from the employee's first day of work at the client site. However, client companies can be held jointly liable for I-9 violations if they exercise sufficient control over the worker's employment terms, work conditions, or termination decisions—a determination ICE makes based on factors like who sets schedules, who supervises daily work, who provides equipment, and who determines compensation rates. This joint liability means both parties face penalties if the I-9 is incomplete, incorrect, or fraudulent, potentially doubling the financial exposure for a single violation.

To manage this shared risk, many staffing arrangements include contractual clauses specifying which party assumes primary I-9 responsibility and how compliance verification will be documented. Best practices include: staffing agencies completing initial I-9 verification before sending workers to client sites, client companies conducting secondary identity verification upon worker arrival (though not completing a duplicate I-9), both parties maintaining records demonstrating due diligence in employment eligibility verification, and clear communication protocols when reverification becomes necessary due to work authorization expiration. Client companies in high-risk industries—hospitality, healthcare, construction, manufacturing—often require staffing agencies to provide certified copies of completed I-9 forms and proof that authorized representatives properly examined identity documents, creating an audit trail that demonstrates both parties fulfilled their obligations.

Lake Mead Mobile Notary serves as an authorized representative for I-9 verification for both staffing agencies and client companies throughout Las Vegas, Henderson, and Clark County. For staffing agencies, our mobile notaries travel to new employee locations—homes, co-working spaces, or client sites—to complete Section 2 verification before the worker's first shift, ensuring compliant I-9s before placement. For client companies receiving temporary workers, we provide verification services that document proper identity checks without creating duplicate I-9 forms that violate federal rules. This dual-service approach helps both parties maintain Summerlin South area compliance, reduce joint liability exposure, and demonstrate the due diligence ICE expects during audits of staffing arrangements.
