  "summary": "The DHS alternative procedure lets employers examine I-9 documents over live video. Synthetic video and injected camera feeds break the step the rule relies on.",
  "lede": "Since August 2023, employers enrolled in E-Verify have been permitted to examine Form I-9 documents over a live video interaction instead of in person.
