When individuals below the age of 18 (minors) are hired by an employer, they need a parent or guardian to fill and attest the Form I-9 information on their behalf.
Few examples are discussed below:
1. Smart Onboarding product with I-9 AutoFill = "ON" in Product Preferences:
In this case, the I-9 Section 1 header details are not editable and are populated from the Biographic Information activity. Therefore, the New Hire's age is calculated based on the date of birth entered on the Biographic Information page. If, on the day of employment, the New Hire has not yet reached 18 years of age, the system will automatically enable the preparers/translators option in Section 1.
Below screenshot shows the date of birth of the New Hire entered on the Biographic Information page.

If the new Hire's age is below 18, they cannot complete Section 1 unless it is attested by a parent or guardian. The flow automatically sets preparer/translator option as default, compelling the New Hire to invite and add preparers to complete the activity. For completing Section 1 with preparer(s)/translator(s), please click here.

2. Smart I-9/E-Verify product or Smart Onboarding product with I-9 AutoFill = "OFF" in Product Preferences:
In this case, the employee's personal information from Biographic Information activity will not be populated in I-9 Section 1. The header fields on Form I-9 Section 1 will be displayed empty for the employee to fill them up.
Based on the Date of Birth entered by the New Hire in Section 1, the age will be calculated. If the New Hire is a minor, the preparer/translator option will be enabled by default and the New Hire is required to invite and add preparers to complete the activity.
