Form I-9 is the federal document every U.S. employer must complete for new hires to verify their identity and work authorization. The E-Verify system is an electronic program (mandatory for some, voluntary for others) that checks the Form I-9 details against government databases.
The Employment Eligibility Verification form, also known as Form I-9, is a form that the US government requires for each employee. Form I-9 and its supporting documentation aim to prove two things: an employee’s identity and authorization to work in the US.
The I-9 includes two sections—one for the employee and one for the employer. Each new employee must complete and sign the first section by the end of their first day. Employers must complete and sign the second section by each new employee’s third day of work.
