Overview

Form I-9 and E-Verify

1. After the hiring department enters new employee information into the HireRight system, the new employee accesses the HireRight web page and completes Form I-9 Section 1 before or on the first day of employment.
2. Once Section 1 is completed, the hiring department completes Form I-9 Section 2 within three business days of the date employment begins. If either Section 1 or 2 of the Form I-9 cannot be properly completed, then the individual is not permitted to continue working.
• Section 1 must be done by the end of the 1st workday.
• Section 2 must be done by the end of the 3rd workday.
3. After the Form I-9 is completed, HireRight automatically accesses the E-Verify system and checks the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Social Security Administration (SSA) data bases for eligibility to work in the U.S.

• In the event that the E-Verify system produces a Tentative Non-Confirmation to work in the U.S., the employee is provided up to eight business days to contact DHS or SSA to initiate a resolution, and must be allowed to continue working.
4. If DHS or SSA issues a final Non-Confirmation to work in the U.S., then the employee is to be separated from the University.
