What's Changed
The updated guidance includes changes to the Form I-9 instructions that employers must use to verify documents for Haitian TPS beneficiaries.
Why It Matters
These changes result from the court order in Miot et al. v. Trump, which stayed DHS's planned termination of TPS for Haiti.

Haitian TPS beneficiaries and their employers should review the updated Form I-9 instructions and follow the new document verification procedures.
