The I-9 process
All new hires and rehires on the Main Campus (Faculty, Staff and Students) need to complete their Form I-9 on or before their first day of employment with the I-9 Analyst. An employee may be asked to stop working until such time as the I-9 form is completed. A new hire can fill out the Form I-9 at any point after an offer is made and accepted.
- On the first day of work – newly hired employees should come to the Department of Human Resources to complete Section 2 of the I-9 Form and to present their original documents. If the employee does not have their original documents they will have THREE business days to present the documents to the I-9 analyst or they will not be allowed to work until they have completed the I-9 form. For additional information on acceptable documents, please see the General Information of Georgetown University I-9 Process.
- Once the I-9 has been completed – the form and the supporting documents will be saved digitally in GMS. The I-9 Analyst will also enter ID Information, such as social security number, passport, visa and employment authorization information into GMS. The employee must be in GMS at the time the I-9 is processed.

Remote Hire
Any employee who is hired by Georgetown University must file an I-9 form, even if they are working outside of the DC area. If an employee is unable to complete the I-9 in person they will need to file the form remotely. The hiring department will need to send the employee the Remote Hire Notice Form. It is the hiring department’s responsibility to complete the Employee Information and Georgetown University Hiring Department Information section of the Remote Hire Notice Form. The employee will then need to take a copy of the I-9 and their original documents to a notary, Human Resources professional or lawyer to complete the I-9 form.
If an employee is unable to locate a notary, Human Resources professional or lawyer to complete the I-9 form the I-9 office can locate a HR representative at a nearby college or university. If an employee would like to utilize this option they would need to contact our office at I-9@georgetown.edu. In the past we have partnered with schools such as Hood College, the University of Maryland, and George Mason University.
The completed I-9 form, Remote Hire Notice Form and copies of the original documents presented will then be mailed back to the Department of Human Resources. Even when completed remotely the I-9 form must still be completed within the 3 business day deadline to be compliance with federal law.
