New EAD Revocation Guidance Issued for E-Verify Employers

Employers enrolled in E-Verify will now be required to generate Status Change Reports identifying employees whose work permits have been terminated due to changes in temporary status protections or other similar programs. In a June 23, 2025 guidance issued on the E-Verify website, case alerts will no longer be used for employment authorization document (EAD) revocations related to the termination of parole or other humanitarian protected status programs.

What employers need to know

• DHS recently sent direct notifications to certain individuals who were paroled into the United States to terminate their parole and revoke their EADs
• DHS may exercise its authority to terminate parole or other humanitarian programs and revoke aliens’ EADs at any time
• Employees with revoked EADs may still possess an EAD that appears valid, although their employment authorization has been revoked
• E-Verify will no longer provide case alerts for EADs that have been revoked; instead, employers should generate the Status Change Report
• E-Verify will continue to provide case alerts for documents that are expiring regularly.
• Employees whose EADs were revoked between April 9-June 13, 2025 would be reflected in Status Change Reports available as of June 20, 2025

What to expect next

• Employers must follow-up on all case alerts and cases in the Status Change Report in E-Verify and reverify each employee on Form I-9 if their EAD was revoked.
• Employees may still be employment authorized based on another status or provision of law and may provide other acceptable Form I-9 documentation to demonstrate employment authorization. Employers should not create a new E-Verify case.
• Employers may see an increase in instances where an employee’s EAD appears valid despite having been revoked, due to the recent removal of protections and employment authorization for individuals previously covered by Temporary Protected Status and parole programs.
