commenters may provide:
Experiences With Pandemic-Related
Document Examination Flexibilities
1. Did you or your organization use
the flexibilities for remote document
examination for the Form I–9 since
March 20, 2020? If not, why? If so, what
was your experience using the
flexibilities? How did small employers
use these flexibilities?
2. If the employer performed any
remote document examinations since
March 20, 2020:
a. What were your experiences with
internal technical capabilities to
perform remote document examination
(for example, video quality, image
quality, document retention, etc.)?
b. What were your experiences related
to employee-provided digital images or
copies of documents for retention?
c. What were your experiences related
to employees’ remote completion and
submission of Section 1 of the Form I–
9?
d. What processes and/or technology
solutions were typically used to
remotely examine documents (for
example, over video link, fax, or email,
etc.)? Was the process always the same,
or did it vary based on circumstances?
What, if any, internal policies were put
into place related to remote document
examination practices?
e. Were any remotely examined
documents rejected because they did
not relate to the individual presenting
them or did not appear to be genuine?
Were there any instances in which a
document was accepted during remote
examination, but upon subsequent
physical inspection, the employer
determined that the document did not
appear to be genuine or did not relate
to the individual presenting it? If so,
what actions did the employer take?
3. If the employer performed any
remote document examinations since
March 20, 2020, and is enrolled in EVerify:
a. Were any documents examined
remotely for which E-Verify returned an
Employment Authorized result, but
upon subsequent physical examination,
the employer determined that the
documents did not appear to be genuine
or relate to the individual presenting
them? If so, what actions did the
employer take?
b. What, if any, challenges did
employers experience in interpreting
and following the requirements of
participation in the E-Verify program 6

during the period of remote document
examination?
4. What other changes did employers
make to Form I–9 document inspection
procedures during the pandemic? Did
employers increase use of authorized
representatives?
Considerations for Future Remote
Document Examination Procedures
1. What are the direct and indirect
burdens on employees and employers
related to the physical document
examination requirement for Form I–9?
2. What are the direct and indirect
burdens on employees and employers
related to the use of authorized
representatives to meet the physical
document examination requirement?
3. What would be the direct and
indirect benefits of offering a permanent
option for remote document
examination of Form I–9 identity and
work eligibility documents (for
example, allowing some employers to
centralize Form I–9 processing)?
4. What would be the direct and
indirect costs of offering a permanent
option for remote document
examination of Form I–9 identity and
work eligibility documents (for
example, training or technology
acquisition costs)?
5. What would be the direct and
indirect burdens on small employers for
the items listed above? What are the
unique challenges faced by small
employers with this process and these
flexibilities? What kinds of alternatives
should be provided for small employers
in adopting these flexibilities?
6. If employers were allowed a
permanent option for remote document
examination, what types of employers
and/or employees do you anticipate
would be interested in participating or
not interested in participating?
7. How might participation
requirements as a condition of these
flexibilities, such as required enrollment
in E-Verify, document or image quality
or retention requirements, or required
completion of training offered by DHS,
impact an employer’s desire or ability to
utilize such a flexibility?
8. What would be the costs or benefits
associated with making enrollment in EVerify a condition of flexibilities for
you, as an employer?
9. If DHS were to permanently allow
an option for remote document
examination, what technical
considerations would participating
employers have to consider?
10. What impact would a permanent
option for remote document
examination have on employees and
employers, if any? If these flexibilities
are adopted, are there requirements DHS
PO 00000
Frm 00074
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
59185
should adopt to ensure employee rights
related to document examination are
protected?
11. Are there solutions that would
enable employers to verify that
documents that are examined remotely
appear to be genuine and to relate to the
individual presenting them? What
actions by DHS would encourage the
commercial development of such
solutions?
12. Should DHS consider changes to
the current lists of acceptable
documents on the Form I–9, in the
context of remote document
examination? What would be the costs
and benefits of such changes?
13. Are there any other factors DHS
should consider related to remote
document examination?

investigation also names the Office of
Unfair Import Investigations (‘‘OUII’’) as
a party.
On October 16, 2020, the Commission
determined not to review Order No. 11
granting motions to intervene by third
parties Shenzhen Xinde Technology
Co., Ltd. (‘‘Xinde’’) and Yongkang Aijiu
Industrial & Trade Co., Ltd. (‘‘Aijiu’’) in
the investigation. See Order No. 11
(Sept. 25, 2020), unreviewed by Comm’n
Notice (Oct. 16, 2020).
Respondents Addaday, WODFitters,
Massimo, Performance Health, Rechar,
Ning Chen, Opove, Shufang ECommerce, Xinde, Aijiu, and Shenzhen
Fusi Technology were terminated from
the investigation based upon settlement
agreements. See Order No. 10 (Sep. 16,
2020), unreviewed by Comm’n Notice
(Oct. 15, 2020); Order No. 12 (Nov. 4,
2020), unreviewed by Comm’n Notice
(Nov. 20, 2020); Order No. 30 (Apr. 8,
2021), unreviewed by Comm’n Notice
(Apr. 22, 2021).
The Unserved Respondents were
terminated from the investigation based
upon withdrawal of the Complaint. See
Order No. 36 at 2 (Aug. 3, 2021)
unreviewed by Comm’n Notice (Aug. 19,
2021).
Respondents Kinghood, Manybo,
Shenzhen Infein, Hong Kong Yongxu,
and Kula (collectively, ‘‘the Defaulting
Respondents’’) were found in default.
See Order No. 17 (Dec. 17. 2020),
unreviewed by Comm’n Notice (Jan. 5,
2021).
On May 6, 2021, OUII filed a motion
to terminate the Asserted Design Patents
from this investigation on the ground
that Hyperice did not have sufficient
rights to the design patents at the time
the investigation was instituted. On May
17, 2021, Hyperice filed its response in
opposition to OUII’s motion to
terminate, which included a crossmotion to amend the Complaint to
reflect proper inventorship.
On May 7, 2021, Hyperice filed a
motion for summary determination that
the Defaulting Respondents have
violated section 337 for infringing its
three asserted patents. On May 14, 2021,
Hyperice supplemented its motion with
additional declarations. On May 20,
2021, Hyperice again supplemented its
motion with claim charts and exhibits.
OUII filed a response in support of the
motion with respect to the ’574 patent
but not with respect to the asserted
design patents.
On August 17, 2021, the ALJ issued
Order No. 38 denying Hyperice’s motion
to amend the complaint and the notice
of investigation to reflect proper
inventorship. That same day, the ALJ
issued Order No. 39 granting OUII’s
motion to terminate the Asserted Design
