How can I edit the company address in Section 2 of the I-9?
If you are missing your address or need to update your address in Section 2 of your Form I-9, this article will walk you through the process. If you are looking to update other parts of Section 2, use this article as a guide.
**Please note that you will only be able to make updates to Section 2 of an Employee's I-9. If there are any errors in Section 1, the Form I-9 will need to be rejected, and the employee will need to correct those before Section 2 can be completed.**
First, you will navigate to your I-9 dashboard. There are two ways to do so. The easiest way is to click into the '# Form I-9's' right from your Admin Dashboard:
*Note if you do not have E-Verify added into Workbright you will not see the E-Verify Summary. Reach out to Ad@workbright.com if you want to learn more about how to add E-Verify to your account.
The second option would be to click 'Onboarding' (1) at the top of the page, and then click 'I-9 Forms' (2 )on the left-hand column. Either option will bring you to the I-9 dashboard.
Next, click the ‘Completed’ tab (1) or the ‘Pending Employer Section’ tab (2). You will only us the ‘Pending Employer Section’ tab (2) if the I-9 is yet to be completed.
To make changes, scroll through the list or search for the name of the employee in the search box (1) and select the desired employee(s) by clicking the checkbox (2) to the left of their name. Once you've checked the box(es), a button will appear that says 'Edit Section 2 for (#) selected form(s)' (3)
We will first look at updating a single user.
After clicking 'Edit Section 2 for (#) selected form(s)', you will be brought to the page where you can make the edits to Section 2. Select ‘Update Company Info’
This will open the window where you can enter (if the information is missing) or update this information.
Click save, and the address will be updated.
Now let's look at what it will look like to update multiple employees.
After clicking 'Edit Section 2 for (#) selected form(s)', you will be brought to this page, where you will see all of the employees you selected. From here, you will be able to update the employees one by one.
Click ‘View/ Modify Documentation,’ this will open a drop-down where you can next select ‘Update Company Info’
Similar to when you update an individual. You will next select ‘Update Company Info’
This will open the window where you can enter (if the information is missing) or update this information.
Once done, you can select save and you will be brought back to the page with the other employees you selected that need to be updated. Follow the same steps for each of them until you are done.
To confirm this change has been made, you will see a log of this update in the “Additional Information” box found on the Form I-9 itself. You can find this by clicking on the “View Form” button from the Form I-9 inbox.
You can also go to the Staff Profile, find the specific staff member, enter the form tab, and select the Form I-9
Once you are on Form I-9, you will see the “Additional Information” box on the second page of the Form I-9. You will see the date, who made the update, and what update was made.
There is also a box right below the other details box on the right side of the Form I-9 that will quickly show you the same information.
Now you have successfully updated your company address information on section 2 of the Form I-9.
