On April 1, 2022, USCIS will dispose of E‑Verify records that are more than 10 years old, which are those dated on or before December 31, 2011.
Employers are required to record the E‑Verify case verification number on the corresponding Form I‑9, Employment Eligibility Verification, or attach a copy of the case details page to the Form I‑9. Employers should retain the Historic Records Report with the Forms I‑9.
Next Steps for Employers
E‑Verify employers have until March 31, 2022, to download case information from the Historic Records Report if they want to retain information about these E‑Verify cases.
For more information and guidance on downloading the Historic Records Report, employers should refer to the fact sheet and instructions for downloading.
