Jakarta Release Notes  

This announcement describes the enhancements and fixes for this release, including support for the new version of E-Verify.
 

What’s New? 

E-Verify 

The new version of E-Verify (v31) includes an important set of changes to the E-Verify workflow. The most impactful changes center around the Duplicate Case Alerts and Tentative Non-confirmation (TNC) workflows.  Below is a summary of changes:  

• Duplicate Case Alert – A new case cannot be created if an active Duplicate case exists. The lookback period for duplicate cases increases from 30 to 365 days 

• TNC – the Further Action Notice (FAN) must be downloaded before Referring a case   

• Photo Match – ability to close a case from the Scan and Upload step 

• Case Synchronization - enhanced synchronization features that resolve out-of-sync E-Verify cases through automation or manual intervention   

To learn more about the full change set, including screenshots that illustrate how these changes will appear in the Tracker I-9 User Interface, please review the Tracker I-9 E-Verify v31 Preview Guide. 

General Enhancements 

• In the Help section, we have added a new link to the Support Options page, labeled “Tracker I-9 Client Success Center”, to help users find and gain access to the library of How-To guides and other content available on this support website. 
   

• Added two new Fields to the I-9 Custom Reports page under the Reports tab: 

• "Employee Profile Email Address" - Returns the email address on the Employee Profile (if any). 

• "Employee Profile Integration ID" - Returns the Integration ID associated with the Employee Profile (if any). The Integration ID is an optional ID that customers define and 

• Modified some existing Custom Report field labels with new values for consistency.
   

What’s Fixed?  

Form I-9 

• Attachments are now accessible on the Remote Section 3 page at the review/approve stage.
   

• Fixed an issue where I-9s created through API without start dates did not have the E-Verify option enabled when the Employee Profile’s Worksite was E-Verify enabled. 
   

• Fixed an issue and improved the overall validation workflow for List B Document Expiration Dates. Now, the system will no longer prematurely display an error before the user enters a date value. The system will also no longer present an error when the date value entered is today's date.
   

• Fixed an issue that prevented the user from signing Section 2 when the Expiration Date field contained “N/A” in the expiration date field for a List C Document that may not have an expiration date. 

• Fixed an issue where the Employee received duplicate emails after completing Section 1.
   

• Resolved an issue where the I-9 manager could not complete a Section 2 Amendment after initiating and canceling the Remote Section 2 Amendment.
   

• Fixed an issue where the search results were incorrect when searching with SSN.
   

• Removed the “Title or Position” field from the Remote Section 3 signature section since the signatory’s title/position is not a field for Section 3 of the Form I-9.
   

• I-9 Managers or (Distributor Admin who logs in as an I-9 Manager) can now see masked data (SSN, Date of Birth, and Document number) when the Override Mask SSN and Sensitive Data Global Settings checkbox permission is enabled.
   

E-Verify 

• Fixed an issue where the E-Verify Date did not appear in Custom Report results for I-9s with completed E-Verify cases.
   

• When Auto-Submit to E-Verify is enabled, the Start Date is more than 3 business days in the past, and the new E-Verify Case is considered a potential duplicate, the system will no longer skip the Duplicate Case Alert page. 

• Fixed a rare issue where the E-Verify Case Details report displayed incorrect information for an unrelated E-Verify Case.
   

Mobile 

• Fixed an issue where the Employee could not advance in the Employee Appoint Remote I-9 workflow after indicating that they needed more time to identify the individual who will serve as the Authorized Representative.
