All University of Michigan and Michigan Medicine employees must complete Form I-9 within 3 business days of hire to verify identity and employment eligibility.

The university has transitioned to electronic I-9 processing. An email invitation to complete Section 1 with our vendor EMP Trust will be sent from [email protected] to individuals identified as being one of the following:

  • Newly hired or rehired employees
  • Existing employees whose work authorization is approaching its expiration date
  • Existing employees whose departments have identified them as needing E-Verify screening.

To Schedule an I-9 Appointment

I-9 processing is completed by in-person appointment ONLY. We do not accept walk-ins.

Choose your appointment location below by clicking the “+” icons. You must arrive on time for your scheduled appointment. Late arrivals may be asked to reschedule for a later date depending on appointment volume.

To ensure a smooth appointment process, please remember the following:

  • Complete Section 1 prior to your appointment. If you have difficulties completing Section 1, please bring a phone or tablet with a camera to your appointment and our team can assist you.
  • You MUST bring physical, unexpired documents that match what you uploaded in Section 1. All documents must be verified in person during your I-9 appointment. Photocopies and/or screenshots of documents are not accepted. If you do not bring your documentation to your appointment, you will be asked to reschedule. Please see the USCIS List of Acceptable Documents for a full list of options.
  • Confirm transportation ahead of time. Parking is limited on campus. Please review each location’s parking and bus stop options before your appointment.

Additional I-9 and Contact Information

NOTE: This is not a virtual meeting request. I-9 meetings between remote employees and their authorized representatives must take place in-person for document verification purposes.

If remote processing is available (see applicable circumstances below), departments can submit a Remote I-9 Request eForm on the employee’s behalf. Employees cannot submit their own remote I-9 requests.

Remote I-9 processing is available for the following employees:

  • Individual remote employees who live more than one hour away from any U-M campus (Ann Arbor, Flint, or Dearborn)
    • Once our team receives the request, we will reach out to the employee with steps on how to find an authorized representative in their geographic area who can complete Section 2 of the I-9 on the employee’s behalf.
  • Employees who work in-person at certain off-site U-M locations
    • Our team will set up the designated U-M remote agent(s) in our electronic I-9 system and assign the applicable employees to them.

The I-9 team can attend new hire orientation events and process employees on-site as long as the event:

  • has at least 15 attendees
  • is held during regular business hours (Monday–Friday, 8:00am – 5:00pm)

Departments should ensure that all employees have completed the necessary background checks and are able to bring their documents with them to the event.

Requests can be made using the I-9 Special Event Request eForm.
