On June 12, 2025, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) began emailing termination notices to approximately 530,000 individuals who entered the United States under the parole program for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans (CHNV). These individuals were informed that their parole status and their parole-based Employment Authorization Documents (EADs) were being immediately revoked.
In response, on June 20, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) issued guidance to all E-Verify employers and Web Services providers. The notice instructed employers to regularly log into their E-Verify accounts and generate a new “Status Change Report.” This report allows employers to review their E-Verify case data and identify any employees whose EADs have been revoked by DHS. While DHS notifies affected individuals directly, employers remain legally responsible for ensuring that all employees are authorized to work in the United States.
To support this requirement, E-Verify has introduced the “Status Change Report” tool. This report replaces the previous case alerts for revoked EADs, which will no longer be provided. Employers must now use this report to regularly check for any changes in employment authorization. However, E-Verify will continue to send alerts for documents that are approaching their expiration dates.
Employers should take the following steps to stay compliant.
-
Generate the Status Change Report:
-
Log in to your E-Verify account
-
Go to the “Reports” tab and select “Status Change Report.”
-
Narrow by revocation date (optional) or generate a full report
-
Download the report in CSV format for internal use
-
Reverify Affected Employees Immediately:
-
Use Form I-9 Supplement B for reverification
-
Collect unexpired documents from List A or List C
-
Do not reverify List B identity documents
-
Do not accept revoked EADs, even if they appear unexpired
-
Document and Complete in a Timely Manner:
Employers must act within a reasonable period to complete the reverification process. Failing to do so may result in continued employment of unauthorized workers—a violation of federal law.
-
Do Not Create a New E-Verify Case:
Reverification must be handled exclusively through Form I-9 procedures.
If you are unable to reverify with a valid EAD, you cannot continue to employ those without current work authorization. However, employees may remain eligible to work under another status but must provide new documentation from List A or List C showing ongoing authorization to work in the United States.
