Can someone other than the employee complete Section 1 of the I-9 for an employee?
Yes. A third party may help an employee who needs assistance in completing Section 1 of the I-9. However, the “Preparer/Translator Certification” block must be completed and signed by the person who assists. The employee must still sign and date the certification block in Section 1 on or before the first day of work.
