When the Work Authorization expiration date falls within the trigger days specified in Reverification details, the "Initiate I-9 Reverification" option will be available under I-9 Console/Keyword Search actions for that I-9. The value of Reverification trigger days is set to 90 days by default but this can be changed as per the requirement.

In case of a EAD auto extension completed transaction, the Section 2 document expiry date is considered as the WAE date.
