Form I-9 Supplement B: Reverification for Current Employees

To continue employment past your original work authorization date, your work authorization status must be reverified through the University's electronic Form I-9 system. This must be completed before or by the date of work authorization expiration. Form I-9 reverification is performed by the Office of Human Resources in partnership with the Payroll Department and the Office of International Studies (OIS). Note: A reverification does not require a new Form I-9 to be started.

Current employees who need to reverify their Form I-9 must schedule an appointment in Craig Hall with HR Client Services. Reverifications cannot be completed at Panther Central or the Hillman Cancer Pavilion (Shadyside).

Appointments for in-person Form I-9 services must be made online. Employees who need reverification services should select "Craig Hall" as their location when scheduling an appointment. Schedule an appointment online. 

Please review the I-9 reverification procedures outlined on the scheduling website prior to making an appointment.

If your work authorization status is changing from Non-Immigrant to Permanent Resident or from Permanent Resident to U.S. Citizen, you must notify the Payroll Department by submitting a copy of your Permanent Resident Card or other work authorization documentation used for the Form I-9 change through their secure site.
