I-9 Authorized Representative Verification That Passes the Audit, Not Just the Vibe Check

In-person Section 2 verification for your remote and distributed hires — done right, documented properly, ready if ICE ever comes asking.

What I Do 

When you hire someone who isn't walking into your HQ on day one, federal law still requires an in-person examination of their original identity and work authorization documents. I serve as your I-9 Authorized Representative — meeting your new hire wherever they are, examining their documents face-to-face, and completing Section 2 accurately and on time.

I'm not notarizing anything. I'm not stamping the form. I'm acting purely as your designated representative under USCIS rules, so your I-9 is completed the way federal law actually requires — by someone physically present with the employee and their original documents.

Who This is For?

  • HR Departments managing remote or hybrid new hires
  • ​Staffing agencies onboarding candidates across multiple locations
  • Law firms and small businesses without in-house staff available to travel
  • Any employer not enrolled in E-Verify, since without that enrollment, remote employees must have their documents physically examined by an authorized representative - which is exactly what I provide 

How it Works

  1. You schedule — reach out with your new hire's location and start date

  2. I travel to them — wherever they are within my service area, I meet them in person

  3. I examine the originals — never copies, never a video feed — and record the document information

  4. I complete and sign Section 2 — accurately, and return it to you for your records, within the federally required 3-business-day window

What I Don't Do
(So You Know Your Options)

I don't perform video-based "alternative procedure" verification. That method is only available to employers already enrolled in E-Verify, and under that path, the verification has to be done by the employer's own staff — not an outside representative. If you're E-Verify enrolled and want to go that route, that's an internal process on your end. If you're not enrolled, or you'd rather not train staff to manage it, an in-person representative — like me — is your compliant path forward.

Why It Matters

The employer is legally liable for any I-9 errors, including ones made by a representative acting on their behalf. That makes the quality of your representative worth as much as their availability. I complete Section 2 correctly, notate it properly, and give you a clean, audit-ready record — not a blank field, a scribbled correction, or a signature four days late.
