Since inception, AdvanStaff HR has assisted every client employer with Form I-9 compliance and meeting federal obligations under the USCIS (U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services) regulations. This notice clarifies a procedural and administrative change to the existing Form I-9 completion and administration process.
Section 1 of the Form I-9 must be completed by EVERY employee no later than the first day of work for pay.
Section 2 of the Form I-9 must be completed by the employer or the employer’s representative within three (3) business days of the first day of work for pay. The hiring employer has the additional statutory requirement of reviewing the original documents a newly hired employee provides at enrollment and must complete and certify Section 2 of the form.
A fully completed and certified Form I-9 is required for any employee to be paid.
Generally, work-site hiring managers schedule newly hired employees to attend an onboarding session at AdvanStaff HR. The I-9 completion process is handled at enrollment. The current process is to make and store copies of the original ID documents that your newly hired individuals present during the onboarding process.
