Use this option if you want to allow corrections to Name Change or Reverification processes in your org. When this option is checked ON, the user will be able to see Section 3 correction options in I-9 Console actions if any Reverification/Name Change completed process exists for an I-9 ID.

How do you enable Section 3 Corrections?

In the I-9 Options page, click the checkbox "Allow I-9 Section 3 Correction".

This allows I-9 Specialists view correction options for Name Change/Reverification in I-9 Console actions provided there exists a prior completed process for Name Change/Reverification for the I-9 ID.

What are the types of Section 3 Correction?

Section 3 corrections are of two types - Reverification Correction and Name Correction.

How do you access Section 3 Correction options?

Before you access Section 3 correction options, you need to identify transactions that has completed Name Change/Reverification process. 

This you can identify in Reverifiy Console. Access Reverify Console via left nav or quick links.

Select a transaction that has Name Change/Reverification process completed. Note the I-9 ID.

Navigate to I-9 Console via left nav or quick links.

Search for the I-9 ID in I-9 Console. Click on Info and Actions for the selected I-9 ID.

Since we have selected a transaction with completed reverification, you will notice "Reverification Correction" option displayed under I-9 Console actions.

You will not notice "Initiate Reverification" option until the WAE date provided in the first reverification process falls within the reverification trigger days provided in I-9 options, 

Below is the screenshot of I-9 Console action when the WAE date falls within the reverification trigger days.

The same procedure has to be followed for accessing "Name Change Correction". The user will be able to see "Name Change Correction" in I-9 Console actions if any prior name change completed process exists for the I-9 ID. Unlike "Initiate Reverification" option which depends on the WAE date and reverfication trigger days for displaying in the I-9 Console actions, the "Initiate Name Change" option is available to users all the time provided there is no pending process for the I-9 ID.

How do you perform Section 3 correction?

Let us consider the above example of Name Change Correction. When clicked on "Name Change Correction", Section 3 opens up in edit mode for the I-9 Specialist to make changes to the values entered in the name fields.

Enter new name details, check I Agree and electronically sign. There will be no E-Verify activity after completing Section 3.
