In-person I-9 appointments, handled with care.
When an employer designates me as its authorized representative, I meet the employee in person, review the documents the employee presents, and complete the assigned representative portion of Form I-9 using the employer’s instructions.
A clear process for employers and employees
I follow the employer’s directions and keep the appointment focused on the representative steps assigned to me.
The employer confirms my role and provides the current form, written instructions, deadline, and return method.
We meet at an agreed location. The employee chooses which acceptable documents to present and brings the originals.
I review the documents as directed, complete the assigned representative portion, and return the paperwork as instructed.
