Form I-9 Authorized Representative in Summerville, SC

An employer may designate anyone. USCIS allows an employer to appoint any person as an authorized representative to examine documents and complete Section 2 of Form I-9 in person on the employer's behalf. The role requires no license or certification. The employer remains legally responsible for what the representative records, which is why it matters whom you send.

This service solves a common problem: you hired someone who lives here, and your office is somewhere else. Federal rules still require a person to physically examine the new hire's original documents. I meet the employee where they are, examine the originals in person, complete Section 2 as your authorized representative, and return the completed form to you the same day.

The employee chooses which acceptable documents to present. USCIS is clear that neither the employer nor the representative may direct that choice. I record what is presented. I do not steer the choice, and I do not ask for more than the form allows.

A notary seal does not belong on Form I-9. A stamped I-9 can draw attention in an audit, so I never place one.

I offer evening and weekend appointments so a new hire does not miss a shift. I can handle several employees at the same appointment at a reduced rate, and the completed forms are returned to you the same day.
