WHAT IS AN I-9 form?

Form I-9, which can be obtained from the Social Security Administration, is required to be used in order to verify an individual's identity as well as their legal ability to work in the United States. This can be accomplished by speaking with the individual in question and reviewing their documentation.

 

Federal legislation requires that you verify your legal authorization to work. Every employer in the United States is required to complete a Form I-9 for each employee who is hired to perform work in the country. This form must be completed for each employee. This is a prerequisite for complying with the law.

 

This rule applies to those who are not citizens of the United States as well as those who are citizens of the country. It is necessary that the form be completely filled out by both the employees and the employers (or authorized representatives of the employer, in some cases).

​

It is necessary for the worker to attest, on the application, that they are qualified to carry out the responsibilities that are linked with their employment. In addition to this, workers are obligated to provide their employers with documentation attesting to their identity and legality to work in the country.

 

This paperwork must demonstrate that they are legally permitted to do so. It is necessary for this documentation to demonstrate that the individual in question is permitted to carry out employment within the nation.
