What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
What are the requirements for verifying employee documents for the I-9 form? I just took over as an operations manager for a small hiring agency and we often payroll employees for major companies. With this said, we often find the candidate and schedule the interview with the hiring corporation. If the corporation likes the employee, we will put them on our payroll and they work as a temporary employee. Most companies that we work with are not local (san francisico to los angeles) and it is almost impossible for us to verify the I.D. I was told that we must be present to actually look at the ID and look at the person to verify the ID. How should I handle this sort of situation? We have previously accepted faxed copies of the I-9 and documents but I was told this was illegal.
