The USCIS requires employees to present documents that show their identity and employment authorization within three business days of the employment start date. If not, they must present an acceptable receipt replacing the document. The employer completes Section 2 by recording the receipt details and skips the E-Verify activity by marking it as complete. When the actual document is provided by the employee, the employer updates the receipt with the actual document and proceeds to E-Verify.

In the Additional Information enter if any note/comment has to be added. If  an alternative procedure is used for remote verification of documents, indicate this by selecting the "Check here if you used an alternative procedure authorized by DHS to examine documents" checkbox. Note: This alternative procedure is allowed only if the Legal Entity (Company/Business Unit) through which the employee is hired is enrolled for E-Verify i.e., a row exists for the Company or Business Unit in the DHS Client setup. If the legal Entity (Company/Business Unit) is not enrolled in E-Verify, this checkbox will appear as disabled and cannot be selected. When this checkbox is selected, attaching supporting documents is required.




If attachment is not provided, the following error will be displayed when completing the activity.




The necessity of uploading attachments in Section 2 is also dependent on the "RequireI-9Attachment" property set in Product Preferences, If this property is set to "ON" the system will not allow you to complete Section 2 unless a supporting document is attached.
