Gurus Please advice me.. What is I-9 form?

[sudsh]

Gurus please help,

Recently I got Ead approved and I have a valid H1 till next year. My employer is asking me to submit I-9 form. I don’t know what it is. Is it related to changing my status H1 to EAD? I don’t want to work on EAD, and want to keep my H1 status alive as I am single. Please advice me is it safe to submit I-9 form to my employer?

EAD ND : 11/26/2003
EAD AD : 06/10/2004
140 ND : 03/27/2003
140 AD : 06/09/2004
