Form I-9 and Documentation

Students who plan to work during the school year must be prepared to present physical documentation of identity and work eligibility. Anyone who wants to work in the United States must complete federal Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, to prove their identity and authorization to work.

What documentation is needed?

United States citizens must provide certain documents (or combination of documents), including but not limited to:

passport
driver's license
social security card
or a birth certificate

International students in the United States on visas must provide:

permanent resident card or alien registration receipt card

and any other document based on your visa type and student status.

Students should bring originals of the acceptable physical documents to campus and be ready to show them when completing the I-9 form. Original documents are required to complete the form. Hard copies or electronic copies of documents are not acceptable.

Completing the I-9 form

There are two sections to the form:

Section 1, which is the Employee section, must be completed online on or before your first (1^st) day of work.
