The Form I-9 handbook indicates Forms I-9 should not be completed for job applicants, but should only be completed for people actually hired. When should SWAs complete the I-9 process?
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. The Form I-9 handbook reflects the requirements found in § 274a.2, only some of which apply to SWAs. While § 274a.2 instructs employers to complete Forms I-9 for new hires, but not job applicants, § 274a.6 states that SWAs may complete Forms I-9 for workers prior to referral.
