Form I-9 instructions indicate an employer may accept a receipt for a document. Why did the training indicate SWAs may not accept receipts?
USCIS regulations at 8 CFR § 274a.2 apply to employers; USCIS regulations at 8 CFR § 274a.6 apply to SWAs and incorporate some, but not all, portions of § 274a.2. Form I-9 instructions reflect the requirements found in § 274a.2, only some of which apply to SWAs. While § 274a.2 allows employers to accept receipts during the I-9 process, § 274a.6 states that SWAs may not accept receipts.
