The Status Change Report was initially deployed on June 20, 2025, to help you identify if any of your E-Verify cases were created with an Employment Authorization Document (EAD) that has been revoked by DHS. As of July 15, the report includes an additional “Revoked Document Number” field to help you determine whether an employee’s EAD presented for Form I-9 and used to create their E-Verify case is the revoked EAD in the report.

EAD Revocation Guidance For E-Verify Employers
E-Verify may have notified you via Case Alerts that one or more of your employees has an Employment Authorization Document (EAD) that has been revoked by DHS.

Accordingly, USCIS will automatically extend through Feb.
On Dec. 13, 2024, the Department of Homeland Security published a final rule (89 FR 101208) that permanently increases the automatic extension period of employment authorization and/or Employment Authorization Document (Form I-766 or EAD) validity from up to 180 days to up to 540 days from the expiration date on the face of the EAD.
USCIS is issuing Form I-797, Notice of Action, to certain Temporary Protected Status (TPS) beneficiaries who are eligible to re-register for TPS or have a pending application to renew their Form I-766, Employment Authorization Document (EAD). This notice further extends the validity of their EAD through March 9, 2025.
Employees may show their Form I-797, along with their TPS-based EAD (EAD with an A12 or C19 code), to any U.S. employer as proof of continued employment authorization through March 9, 2025.
