How to complete the Supplement B form

January 13, 2025

Supplement B (formerly known as Section 3) is an I-9 form that must be completed when one of the following occurs `[1]` :

- Your employee legally changes their name
- Your employee is rehired within 3 years of the date that their original I-9 form was completed
- Your employee’s documentation of employment authorization has expired

If your employee is rehired after 3 years of the date that their original I-9 form was completed, they will be required to complete a new I-9 form. [Learn more in this article](https://intercom.help/onboardingiq/en/articles/10371957-view-take-action-on-i-9-forms).

The Fountain I-9 Center will save this form with the worker’s original I-9 form. Additionally, the I-9 Center audit trail for this worker will show a timestamped event for the Supplement B form being filed, including the name of the administrator who filled out and submitted the form. Access the audit trail by clicking **More Actions** and then **Take Action on I-9**.
