| Correct!
Yes. The I-9 rules require that the documents
presented appear to “reasonably relate” to the
employee. Here, the birth certificate is acceptable because
the employee has indicated that Richardson is her maiden
name, and birth certificates generally are not edited, altered,
or updated when an individual’s name is legally changed.
What
if an employee presents a document for I-9 purposes with
a different last name? An employee started work today and
indicated that her last name is Jones on her Form I-9. But
then she presented a birth certificate for List C that shows
her last name as Richardson. She says that is her maiden
name and listed it in Section 1 of the Form I-9 as her maiden
name. Can I accept this as a List C document?
___
Yes, I can accept the information 'as is'
___
Yes, I can conditionally accept the information pending
submission of a new document with a matching name.
___
No, I cannot accept the information
