Q1: What is I-9 Verification?

A: I-9 Verification is the process of confirming a new employee’s identity and authorization to work in the United States, as required by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). As an authorized representative, I verify your identity documents and complete Section 2 of Form I-9 on behalf of your employer.

Q2: Who can request an I-9 Verification?

A: Any employer or employee who needs their Form I-9 completed for remote hiring or local onboarding.
I assist:

• New hires working remotely for out-of-state employers.

• Employers who prefer a trusted third party to complete Section 2.

• Contractors or staffing agencies needing professional I-9 support in Florida.

Q3: Where do you perform I-9 verifications?

A: I offer flexible appointment options:

• In-Office Appointments: Port St. Lucie, FL.

• Mobile Appointments: I can travel to your preferred location — home, office, worksite, or café — for your convenience.
  

• Online Appointment: Using internet and Computer/Laptop, Tablet, or Smartphone

Q4: What do I need to bring?

A: Please bring original, unexpired identification documents from the USCIS I-9 Lists of Acceptable Documents:

• List A: Documents proving both identity and work authorization (e.g., U.S. Passport, Permanent Resident Card), or

• List B + List C: One from each (e.g., Driver’s License + Social Security Card).

Q5: Do I need my employer to be present?

A: No. Your employer designates B. Elise Notary Services as their authorized representative. I verify your documents, complete Section 2, and return the signed form securely to your employer.

Q6: How long does the appointment take?

A: Most verifications take approximately 15 to 20 minutes, depending on document type and clarity.

Q7: How much does I-9 Verification cost?

A:

• In-Office Verification: $10 flat fee.

• Mobile Verification: Starting at $10 plus a travel fee (based on distance).
  Payment is due at the time of service, and receipts are provided for employers or reimbursement purposes.

• Online Verification: $25

Q8: Can this be completed online or remotely?

A: Yes. Federal law requires document inspection by an authorized representative, and this inspection can now be done either in-person or virtually — depending on your employer’s approval and eligibility for the virtual verification option. This flexibility ensures a fast, secure, and convenient process for remote employees and employers nationwide.

Q9: Do you keep copies of my documents?

A: No. After your Form I-9 is completed and returned to your employer, no copies of your identification documents are retained. Your privacy and security are always protected.
