On Your First Day

Verify your I-9

Your I-9 documents need to be verified in-person. At Tufts, you have two options for in-person verification:

A) Inspection of documents by a Tufts Support Services Representative: You will need to make an appointment. Click on the campus where you would like I-9 Documents verified (this does not need to be the campus you are working on). We cannot guarantee walk-in appointments will be accommodated at this time, to adhere to social distancing guidelines.

B) Inspection of documents by a witness of your choosing using “I-9 Everywhere”. This allows you to select an individual in your network to view your I-9 documents in person. You do not need to come to campus.  This option is open to all employees, whether they are working on a Tufts campus or fully remote. After you have completed Section 1 of your I-9 in eServe.
