I-9 Employment Verification
Elite Notary Signing helps employees complete employer-authorized, in-person I-9 document review in Duluth and Metro Atlanta.
Mobile appointments serving Gwinnett, Fulton, DeKalb, Forsyth, and Cobb counties. Location and timing are confirmed before booking.
Form I-9 is not notarized.
ENS acts as an employer-authorized representative for document examination and the applicable attestation. No notarial seal or certificate is used. Your employer remains responsible for Form I-9 compliance.
Before your appointment
Asked to find someone locally for your I-9? Start with your employer’s authorization, then prepare these three items.
Your document selection
You choose from the USCIS Lists of Acceptable Documents: one List A selection, or a List B selection together with a List C selection.
Form and access
Have Section 1 completed as required, plus the employer’s form or platform instructions and return method. Confirm any representative access before the visit.
Who completes and signs each part?
Employee: completes and signs Section 1 and presents their chosen acceptable documents.
ENS: examines the documents in person and completes and signs the applicable employer-authorized portion, such as Section 2.
Employer: authorizes the representative, provides instructions, retains the form, and remains responsible for compliance. An employee cannot act as their own authorized representative.
Working remotely or using an online I-9 platform?
A remote job does not automatically mean remote document examination. This ENS service provides a local, in-person document review for employees whose employers authorize it.
Completing a form in an online platform does not replace physical examination. USCIS permits a separate alternative procedure only when its conditions are met; an employer’s instructions alone cannot waive those requirements.
A clear path to completion
Share the instructions
Request a visit with your location, deadline, and employer’s requirements. Confirm ENS may serve as the representative.
Confirm the plan
ENS reviews the requested process and confirms appointment arrangements, pricing, and any platform access needed.
Meet and complete
Present your acceptable documents in person. ENS completes the authorized review and attestation, following the agreed return instructions.
Plan your appointment
Review I-9 pricing, then share your location, timing, and employer’s process so ENS can confirm the arrangements.
Common questions
Is I-9 verification the same as notarization?
No. Form I-9 uses an employer or authorized representative’s attestation, rather than a notarial act. ENS does not place a notarial seal on Form I-9.
Can ENS complete Section 2 for my employer?
Yes, when your employer authorizes ENS to act as its representative and the appointment requirements can be met. Share the employer’s instructions before scheduling; the employer retains compliance responsibility.
Who chooses which documents I bring?
You choose an acceptable List A selection, or a List B selection plus a List C selection. Neither ENS nor your employer should require a particular document when you present another acceptable selection.
Can I bring photos or photocopies?
For this in-person service, plan to present the original acceptable documents. USCIS allows specific exceptions, including a qualifying certified birth-certificate copy and certain receipts. A photo or ordinary photocopy is not a general substitute. Ask HR about the applicable USCIS rule before booking if an original is unavailable.
More I-9 questions
Do I need employer approval first?
Yes. Confirm that your employer accepts an outside authorized representative and obtain its instructions, deadline, and return method before the appointment.
Can you assist employees who work remotely?
Yes. Employees working remotely can meet ENS locally for employer-authorized, in-person document review. This service does not assume your employer qualifies for the separate USCIS remote examination procedure.
Can you use my employer’s online platform?
Send the platform instructions before scheduling. ENS must confirm the required access and workflow. An electronic form does not by itself remove the requirement for in-person document examination.
Does ENS provide legal, HR, or immigration advice?
No. ENS provides the authorized appointment service. Direct legal or immigration questions to qualified counsel and employer policy questions to HR.
How do I request an appointment?
Use the request form and provide your location, deadline, and employer’s instructions. Include any platform or return requirements. ENS will confirm arrangements and next steps.
