The Trump administration has modified the Employment Eligibility Verification Form I-9, replacing “noncitizen authorized to work” with “alien authorized to work.” This change aligns with statutory language and reinstates the term “alien,” which was removed during the Biden administration’s 2023 update. The updated form, effective from April 2025, also includes revisions to List B documents and a revised DHS Privacy Notice. Employers must use the new form by May 2027 for foreign workers in the U.S.
