Employment Eligibility Verification (I-9) Compliance @Stanford
About I-9 Compliance
To comply with U.S. law, Stanford must verify eligibility for employment for all new employees – within 3 days of hire – by collecting a Form I-9 and reviewing original documents establishing the employee's eligibility to work in the U.S. The employee, the hiring department and Payroll all have roles & responsibilities in the I-9 collection process. The consequences for not completing the I-9 correctly, or within the required timelines, can be significant. Stanford is committed to complying with Federal I-9 Regulations. Our systems, policies and procedures are designed to support and facilitate compliance.
If you would like help with a Form I-9 issue, we invite you to contact the I-9 Compliance Specialist for fast, friendly, professional support.
