How to Complete I-9 For Remote Employees

Remote employment requires remote solutions. We understand this at TrendSource, which is why we offer Remote I-9 Verifications. Simply said, the old way of doing things doesn’t work for this new employment model.

It is no longer feasible for employees to meet with their new company’s HR team as part of their orientation, spending a few minutes in somebody’s office, providing documents and filling out form I-9 together.

With New Hires residing great distances from their new company’s headquarters, a new solution is needed.

This is why employers are asking how to verify I-9s remotely.

Can You Verify I-9 Remotely?

Currently, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has allowed employers to temporarily complete an I-9 for their remote employees over a video chat. In this scenario, the New Hire holds their documents up to the camera, showing their employer.

This is a temporary solution in the wake of COVID lockdowns. DHS has remained steadfast in assuring people that this solution will remain temporary. This means that soon, companies will be in a rush to properly I-9 their remote employees.

TrendSource can help.

TrendSource helps employers complete I-9 for remote employees with Remote I-9 Verifications. Unlike the temporary solution DHS offered, TrendSource’s Remote I-9 Verifications are final, meaning they will not have to be redone when the DHS temporary solution is not longer available.

Remote I-9 Verifications are convenient for employers and New Hires alike. Employers need only order a Verification online and provide the New Hire(s) contact information. From there, a local TrendSource Field Agent reaches out to the new employee and sets up a meeting for them to complete the I-9 together in person.

Once it is complete and has gone through a rapid yet rigorous QA process, the completed I-9 is available on the client’s dashboard. Head here for a more detailed explanation of the process.

The world is changing. Compliance for employers must change with it.
