The USCIS allows any willing adult to review employee ID as an “Authorized Agent” and sign page 2 of the I-9.
Notaries are highly recommended because they are trustworthy, unbiased third parties who are usually willing to serve as an Authorized Agent.
Employee has to ping his own network/research notaries and alternatives verifiers which can take up to a week.
Delays in I-9 verification could result in losing a candidate to a competitive offer in today’s heated talent marketplace.
Friction experienced during I-9 pre-boarding can spill over to an employee’s critical initial 30 day outlook on their new job.
Candidates might need to travel significant distances to meet third party verification agent.
We have legally binding contracts as the corporate Authorized Agent of record which extends to our notary contractors.

1. Performed remote examination of an employee’s documents between March 20, 2020, and July 31, 2023;
2. Been enrolled in E-Verify at the time they completed the Form I-9 for that employee;
3. Created a case in E-Verify for that employee (except for reverification); and
4. Must be currently enrolled in and continue to participate in E-Verify.
