4 What is the purpose of Form I-9? The purpose of this form is to document verification of the identity and employment authorization of each new employee (both citizen and non-citizen) to work in the United States. Employers must ensure newly hired employees complete and sign Section 1 of Form I-9, no later than the first day of employment. Employers must examine evidence of identity and employment authorization within 3 business days of the employee’s first day of employment. The following slides explain in detail how to complete the Form I-9.

5 Section 1 of Form I-9 For the most current form and instructions visit www.uscis.gov Ensure the form is the most current form. This section must be legible. Employee’s name must match what is on the presented supporting documents. E-mail address and phone number are optional. Employee may write “N/A” if they choose not to provide this information.

6 Section 1 of Form I-9 Employee Attestation Smokey Bear06/13/XX Ensure one of the boxes for citizenship is checked. Ensure the employee signs and dates this form the day it is completed by the employee. If an employee requires assistance in completing Section 1, this certification block must be completed.

7 Section 2 of Form I-9 Employer or Authorized Representative Review and Verification All documents must be unexpired and original with the exception of a certified copy of a birth certificate. Bear, Smokey REMEMBER: Employers CANNOT specify which document(s) they will accept from an employee. This is an example of a document presented from List A. Employer must clearly indicate document title, issuing authority, document number and expiration date. It is important to note the examiner of the documents and the employee must both be physically present during the examination of the employee’s documents.

8 Section 2 of Form I-9 Employer or Authorized Representative Review and Verification This is an example of documents presented from List B and List C. Bear, Smokey List B contains documents that establish identity only. List C contains documents that establish employment authorization only. If documents from List B & C are presented, a document from list A should not be presented. The examiner of the documents and the employee must both be physically present during the examination of the employee’s documents.

9 LISTS OF ACCEPTABLE DOCUMENTS All documents must be UNEXPIRED Employees may present one selection from List A or a combination of one from List B and one selection from List C.

10 CERTIFICATION OF FORM I-9 Enter the employee’s first day of employment. The employer must complete Section 2 by examining evidence of identity and employment authorization within 3 business days of the employee’s first day of employment. If sign-ups are completed in early spring, as long as the employee has accepted an employment offer, the Form I-9 can be completed along with Section 2 Certification block. Provide name and title of the person completing Section 2. Sign and date the attestation on the date Section 2 is completed. Employers may, but are not required to photocopy the document(s) presented. If photocopies are made, they should be made for ALL new hires or reverifications. Photocopies must be retained with Form I-9 in case of inspection by DHS. Employers must always complete Section 2 even if they photocopy an employee’s document(s). John Forrest XX

11 SECTION 3: Reverification and Rehires When rehiring an employee within 3 years of the date Form I-9 was originally completed, employers have the option to complete a new Form I-9 or complete Section 3. If the employee’s name has changed, record the name change in Block A. Employer’s signature and date must be documented.

12 Single Resource Casual Hire Information Form This form sets the formal agreement between the Agency and the Casual to ensure there is no misunderstanding. It establishes the authority to pay under the AD Pay Plan.

13 Single Resource Casual Hire Information Form This form also establishes what the government will pay for travel and what expenses are reimbursable. It provides a check-list for hiring documents to ensure prompt payment for work performed. If the form is not properly signed and dated, it may not be an acceptable document if there is a grievance filed by the casual.

15 FEDERAL FORM W-4 The Federal Form W-4 is used to initiate the profile for a newly hired casual – Name, Address, and Tax preferences. We do not use the worksheet on the form, only the information below the dotted line will be used for input. If blocks 3, 5, & 7 are not properly filled out, taxes will default to Single/Zero. Exempt status expires on February 17, 2015. Taxes will default to Single/Zero upon the expiration date unless a current form is received. The address must be the casual’s valid mailing address, not the physical location. The Federal W-4 may be used for State Taxes. In order to update both Federal & State taxes, “STATE” must be indicated on the form.

16 Form Requirements to claim Exempt: Complete and legible first and last name. Legible 9 digit social security number. A marital status must be checked. “Exempt” must be written in block 7.

If the form is incomplete or illegible, the casual’s profile will not be updated and the form will be sent back.
