Employers may accept one document from List A, or a combination of one document from List B and one document from List C.

Enter the employee's Hire Date. Hire Date is important and is required, as the employer should refer the employee's case to SSA and DHS for verification within three working days of the employee's 'Hire Date'. 'Hire Date' is the employee's first day of employment.
