Form I-9

The U.S. government requires all employers to verify eligibility to work for each person they hire. As part of that verification process, a Form I-9 must be completed by all employees, including student employees. This refers to students who are new to the university payroll system or students who have had a break in service.

There are two sections that must be completed on an employee’s initial Form I-9:

  • Re-Verification to extend Work Authorization End Date

An individual whose employment authorization has expired must re-verify their form 1-9 prior to their work authorization end date. This must be done in-person at the Student Employment Services office and an appointment is required. Make an appointment. Students MUST also bring certain required documents to their appointment from the PDF Document: list of acceptable documents (List A or C). The specific type of document/s depends on each students’ particular status. Students may wish to present a combination of documents that indicate their classification is work authorized. For Example:

  • F-1 Students – Form 1-20 in combination with Form 1-94
  • J-1 Students – Form DS-2019 in combination with Form 1-94
  • H1B Temporary Workers- Form 1-94
  • H1B – 240 day automatic extensions
  • Same Employer – 1-94 Form
  • Switching Employers (Portability) 1-94 Form and Foreign Passport
  • OPT – (First Time) -1-766 Employment Authorization Document (EAD Card)
  • OPT Stem Extensions – 180 day automatic extension – Expired EAD in combination with form 1-20 endorsed for Stem Extension.

Also, please note:

  • Confirmation of Campus Employment form is NOT required for re-verification appointments.
  • Do NOT complete section 1 of Form 1-9, it is NOT required for extensions.

 

 

  • Legal Permanent Residents

Legal Permanent Residents (LPR) are not subjected to re-verification whether their LPR card has an expiration date of 2 years or 10 years. Only LPR who enter the country with the 1-551 temporary stamp in their foreign passport are subject to re-verification. In that case, the expiration would be 1 year from the date of entry.
