A rehired employee already has an I-9 on file. Do they need to complete a new I-9?
No, provided the employee is rehired within three (3) years after original completion of the I-9. The verifying department needs to complete Section 3 of the I-9 form which requires recording the date of rehire and a signature and date. If an employee is rehired three (3) years after his/her last day, a new I-9 must be completed. If the previous work authorization has expired, but the employee is eligible to work on a different basis, the verifying party must record the date of rehire, document title and number granting authorization to hire, sign, and date the form.
