Revoked EAD Guidance

DHS has revoked certain Employment Authorization Documents (EADs) as of April 24, 2025. This removes the authorization to work for any employee with certain EADs, unless a Supplement B is correctly filed with updated supporting documents.

What is an EAD?

‍Employment Authorization Document (EAD) is a work permit issued by USCIS that allows non-citizens to legally work in the United States for a specific period.  

What does it mean that DHS revoked the EAD?

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has sent direct notifications to certain individuals who were paroled into the United States to terminate their parole and revoke their EADs.  

Important: Even if an employee's EAD has been revoked, they may still hold another valid document authorizing them to work.

For Employers Using E-Verify: 

If your company uses E-Verify and has received an email from the i9 Intelligence support team:

1. Review the email list of employees marked with revoked EADs

2. Reverify their employment authorization using an unexpired document

To Complete Reverification:

1. Log in to the i9 Intelligence system

2. Pull up the employee's Form I-9

3. Select to add a new Supplement B (former Section 3)

4. Select reverification

5. Provide the reverified document information

6. Sign Supplement B

Note: You do not create a new E-Verify case

If an employee cannot provide valid proof of work authorization, you are required to end their employment. We have outlined next steps to assist you through this process.

1. Pull up the employee's Form I-9

2. Select the Instruction/Employee Records on the right-hand side

3. Select Add Termination date

4. Add the termination date  

For Non E-Verify Employers: 

Employees with revoked EADs should have received a notice from USCIS informing them that their employment authorization document has been revoked/terminated.

While not required, if you would like to review your records, you can pull the I-9 Data Export report under the Reports section. Here's how to access the report:

1. Log in to the i-9 Intelligence system. 

2. Select Reports. 

3. Select Compliance. 

4. Select I-9 Data Export. 

5. Export your report. 

6. Filter by citizenship status. 

7. Reverify employees.
