Can an employer accept an expired drivers license to establish a new hires identity for Form i9 purposes?
Yes. However, a driver’s license can only be used to establish a new hire’s identity for Form i9 purposes (not authorization to work). It is one of a number of List B documents that only establishes identity for i9 purposes.
