Federal Form I-9 FAQ

Students who are seeking to work on campus should be prepared to show original identifications (IDs) for the Federal Form I-9. According to the USCIS, all employers in the United States “must ensure proper completion of Form I-9 for each individual they hire for employment (…) The employee must also present his or her employer with acceptable documents evidencing identity and employment authorization.”

What IDs can I bring?

Please review page 2 of the Form I-9 for a list of acceptable documents.

When do I need to bring my IDs?

You must present your original IDs to the Office of Financial Aid on or, preferably, well before your intended first day of work.  Copies, photos, or expired IDs are not acceptable.

Will just my school ID and driver’s license work?

No. These IDs only evidence identity, but they do not evidence employment authorization in the United States. A photo ID in List B must be accompanied by a List C document.

Can I bring my passport only?

Yes. Any item in List A will suffice on its own as acceptable documentation.

Do returning student employees need to show IDs?

Not usually. If there has been an extended break in your employment (besides summer and winter breaks), please contact studentemployment@umw.edu for confirmation.

I am a nonresident alien. What do I need to bring?

Please review the requirements on the I-9 for non-residents. If you bring your foreign passport, you will also need to present the Form I-94 and DS-2019. Nonresidents are required to obtain a social security card/number. Students may apply for a social security card/number at the local Social Security Administration building at 9915 Patriot Highway, Fredericksburg, VA 22407. Please reach out to the Center for International Education for more information on how to obtain a social security card/number.

I do not have a List A or List C identification on campus. What should I do?

Make arrangements to have the documents on hand once you have accepted a position of student employment. We strongly discourage parents from mailing List A or List C documents.

I am scheduled to begin work tomorrow, but I do not have my IDs. What should I do?

Please communicate your issue to your supervisor. Supervisors are aware of the regulation and are encouraged to make arrangements with you for a later start date.
