To comply with the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986, Vanderbilt is required to verify the identity and employment eligibility of new employees or employees assigned to a covered federal contract. This is completed through Federal Form I-9 and E-Verify.
Completion of the I-9 form is an easy two-step process that involves providing basic, personal information, online through a secure web form and presenting original documents, confirming your identity and employment eligibility with the People Solutions Assistants. All employees at Vanderbilt University are required to complete Federal Form I-9 Section 1 on or before their first day of employment. Section 2 must be completed on or before the third day after their first day of employment.
