Legal Work Status

1.87 Legal Work Status

Effective Date: 1/1/2019

The Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 requires that all employees hired by WVEMS provide documentation proving that they have a legal right to work in the United States.

In compliance with this Act, all job offers extended to successful applicants are made contingent upon the receipt of the required documentation and completion of USCIS Form I-9. The required documentation must be provided prior to the date the employee begins work. Only those successful applicants who complete Form I-9 will be permitted to work.

Former employees who are rehired must also complete the form if they have not completed an I-9 with the Agency within the past three years, or if their previous I-9 is no longer retained or valid.
