# I-9 Forms Table Navigation

Understand the basics of the I-9 Forms table screen.

The I-9 Forms table is where you’ll find all your workers who have an I-9 task assigned. Here you’ll see I-9 form completion status and where your action may be required. To access the I-9 Forms table, click I-9 Center in the left side panel. You will land in the I-9 Forms table by default.

# Status Tabs

At the top of the table, there are eight status tabs to quickly find I-9 forms in different stages of the I-9 completion and E-Verify process.

- **All:** All I-9 forms, regardless of status.

- **Section 1:** The worker has been assigned an I-9 form to complete, but has not completed Section 1 yet.

- **Section 2:** This tab will have three types of workers:

- The worker has completed Section 1, but Section 2 needs to be completed by the employer or an Authorized Representative.

- Depending on which verification methods your company has enabled, you will also see employees who have an upcoming On-Site or Live Video verification meeting scheduled.

- OR Section 2 has been completed, but the company is not using E-Verify. Therefore, workers will not move into the Awaiting Information, Pending E-Verify, E-Verify, or Completed tabs.

- OR the worker has not been sent to E-Verify for some reason, if the company is using E-Verify.

- **Awaiting Information:** Sections 1 and 2 are completed, but there is missing information on the form.

- If the worker provides an acceptable document receipt instead of a document when completing Section 1.

- If the worker is awaiting their SSN because they are new to the country.

- **Pending E-Verify:** The worker’s I-9 form is pending submission to E-Verify or has been submitted to E-Verify but has not been reviewed by E-Verify yet.

- **E-Verify:** The worker’s completed I-9 form has been successfully sent to E-Verify.

- **Expiring:** Workers with Section 1 documents that are expiring or have already expired.

- **Completed:** The worker’s E-Verify case status is Closed Authorized, and they are verified to legally work in the U.S.

**Tip!** To search for a worker, use the search at the top. You can search by name, Worker ID, or email.

# Quick Filters

When you select any of the eight status tabs, you will see additional **quick filters** based on the tab selected.

If you have the E-Verify tab selected, you will see Filter By Status options for case statuses that require action, like **Unconfirmed Data** or **TNC**.

You will have two quick filter options for most tabs: **Filter By Priority** and **Filter By Status**.

# Changing Column Data

Above the status tabs is the **Columns** button, which allows you to select which columns of data will be visible on the I-9 Forms table.

**Important Note:** The First Name, Last Name, and Status columns cannot be removed.

Columns can be added or removed related to the I-9 form, worker details found in the Worker’s Profile, or even custom worker attributes that are specific to your company’s account. Click **Apply** to add the columns to your table.

# Custom Filtering

Next to Customize Columns, you will see the Filters button, which allows you to hone in on specific workers even more.

To create a custom filter, **select values from all three dropdowns**. The types of filters you can build are:

- **Step:** Results based on which step in the I-9 flow the worker is in.
- **Expiration**: Results based on a certain expiration date value.
- **Start Date:** Results based on a worker's start date.
- **Section 2 Selection:** Results based on which Section 2 verification method was chosen by the worker.
- **Rejected:** Can be used if your company has I-9 Form approval enabled. Select true or false.
- **E-Verify status:** Results based on the worker’s main E-Verify case status.
- **E-Verify government status:** Results based on the E-Verify case sub-status.
- **Case Tags:** Results based on workers with a specific case tag or set of case tags.

To layer on additional filter criteria, click **\+ Add condition group (OR)** and then **\+ Filter**.
