Frequently Asked Questions

Helpful answers for employees, employers, and Human Resources teams preparing for an I 9 authorized representative appointment.

What is Form I 9?

+
Form I 9, Employment Eligibility Verification, is used by employers to document the identity and employment authorization of individuals hired to work in the United States. The employee completes Section 1, and the employer or its authorized representative completes Section 2.

What is an I 9 authorized representative?

+
An employer may designate another person to act on its behalf for Section 2 completion. Five Star Notary Service LLC may meet with the employee, examine the documents presented, complete and sign the authorized representative portion, and return the completed form or confirmation according to the employer's instructions.

Can an employee book the appointment directly?

+
Yes. If your employer has instructed you to locate a local authorized representative, you may schedule the appointment directly with Five Star. The employer should provide any required instructions, submission method, deadline, and employer information needed for Form I 9 completion.

Is this a notarization?

+
No. Form I 9 completion is not a notarial act. Five Star acts as the employer's designated authorized representative for this service, not in the capacity of a notary public.

What happens during the appointment?

+
The appointment may include:
  • Review of the employer's written instructions
  • In person examination of original acceptable documents or an eligible receipt
  • Completion and signature of Section 2
  • Return or submission of the completed form according to employer instructions

What documents should the employee bring?

+
The employee may present one acceptable List A document, or one acceptable List B document together with one acceptable List C document. The employee chooses which acceptable documents to present. Neither the employer nor the authorized representative should require a particular document or combination of documents.

Do the documents need to be original?

+
For the standard in person process, the employee generally presents original, acceptable, and unexpired documents, or an eligible receipt when permitted. Photocopies generally are not acceptable, except where the Form I 9 rules specifically allow them.

How quickly must Section 2 be completed?

+
Section 2 generally must be completed within three business days after the employee's first day of employment for pay. Employers and employees should schedule early enough to meet the required deadline.

Can the appointment be completed entirely by video call?

+
Our standard authorized representative service is completed in person. Certain qualifying employers may use a Department of Homeland Security authorized alternative document examination procedure if they meet the applicable requirements and provide specific instructions. The employer is responsible for determining whether that procedure applies.

Does Five Star determine whether the employee is authorized to work?

+
No. We examine the documents presented to determine whether they reasonably appear genuine and relate to the employee, then complete Section 2 according to the employer's instructions. We do not provide immigration advice or independently determine employment eligibility.

Who is responsible for Form I 9 compliance?

+
The employer remains responsible for Form I 9 compliance and for the actions of the authorized representative completing the form on its behalf. Employers should provide clear instructions and review the completed Form I 9 promptly.

Do you provide E Verify services?

+
No. Five Star's standard service is limited to acting as the employer's designated authorized representative for Form I 9 document examination and completion of the employer authorized portion. E Verify is handled separately by the participating employer or its authorized E Verify provider.

Do you offer urgent or after hours appointments?

+
Yes. Urgent, same day, and after hours appointments may be available for an additional fee, subject to scheduling and travel availability.
Employers should provide their written instructions, submission method, deadline, and employer contact information before the appointment. Employees should bring the acceptable original documents they choose to present.
