  5. E-Verify • E-Verify is required for all employers who have federal contracts. • E-Verify provides an instant employment eligibility confirmation. • Information will be entered into E-Verify from the I-9 and supporting documents. • Verification number is printed on the I-9 when employment is approved. • New hire and re-hire PA Form’s cannot be entered without the completed I-9 Form, including the E-Verify number.

  6. Requirements/Regulations • Employers may NOT specify which documents they will expect from the employee. • Only original documents are acceptable for verification purposes. • Copies of the supporting documents are not required for citizens, but are required for permanent residents and non-residents to be submitted with the I-9 to the HR-SSC. • I-9 form is required by law within three days of hire. Purdue University policy requires I-9 completion on or before the hire date. • White Out (correction fluid or tape) may NOT be used on any part of this form.

  7. Requirements/Regulations • The I-9 must be sent with the new hire/re-hire PA Form. The PA Form will not be entered without the I-9. • Non-citizens who have a “999” number assigned to them must provide a valid social security number within 30 days of hire. • Certain documents listed on the I-9 list are no longer acceptable because of E-Verify. List B documents must include a photograph. • All documents must be current and valid. (Expired documentation is not acceptable.)
