Some employees may write "N/A" in the space provided for the expiration date in Section 1 if they are aliens whose employment authorization does not expire(e.g.,asylees,refugees,certain citizens of the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, or Palau). Reverification does not apply for such employees unless they chose to present evidence of employment authorization in Section 2 that contains an expiration date and requires reverification, such as Form I-766, Employment Authorization Document. Reverification applies if evidence of employment authorization (List A or List C document)presented in Section 2 expires. However,employers should not reverify: 1. U.S. citizens and noncitizen nationals; or 2. Lawful permanent residents who presented a Permanent Resident Card (Form 1-551) for Section 2. Reverification does not apply to List B documents. If both Section I and Section 2 indicate expiration dates triggering the reverification requirement, the employer should reverify by the earlier date. For reverification, an employee must present unexpired documentation from either List A or List C showing he or she is still authorized to work. Employers CANNOT require the employee to present a particular document from List A or List C. The employee may choose which document to present.
