I-9 Reverification

If you are a current employee or student worker whose I-9 work authorization is due to expire before your paid employment at MIT ends, you must have your Form I-9 reverified before the expiration date.

To have your current Form I-9 reverified you must present your latest appropriate supporting documents to an authorized MIT representative in-person. The representative will then review and update your current Form I-9 online.

(Important Note: Only authorized MIT representatives can view your current Form I-9 online. Do not attempt to access the I-9 system yourself to view your current Form I-9 or create a new one. The system will not grant you access.)

Reverify Form I-9: On Campus

To reverify your Form I-9 on campus, book an in-person appointment at the Atlas Service Center.

Plan Your Visit to the Atlas Service Center

Before your appointment

  • If you need to reschedule, please do so at least 24 hours in advance.
  • Please make sure to bring your appropriate supporting documents to your appointment.
  • If you have any COVID-19 symptoms, do not attend your appointment. Please notify us at I-9@mit.edu that you cannot attend your appointment. You should also notify your supervisor.

At your appointment

  • Please be on time for your appointment at the Atlas Service Center in E17-106 (map and directions).
  • Be sure to bring your supporting documents.
  • For safety reasons, do not bring any guests to your appointment. If you need an accommodation, please contact I-9@mit.edu.
  • Face coverings are optional at the Atlas Service Center. If you choose to wear a mask, you may be asked to remove it briefly for facial identification; there is a plexiglass barrier between you and the I-9 representative.
  • Show your photo identification at the service desk outside of E17-106.
  • You will be instructed about where to wait for the I-9 representative, based on social distancing guidelines.
  • You will be called by an I-9 representative to complete your Form I-9.
  • The I-9 representative will login to the system and review your current Form I-9.
  • The I-9 representative will ask you to provide your original supporting documents. The representative will then complete Section 3 and take photos of your supporting documents, certifying reverification.

Reverify Form I-9: At Your Own Location (within the U.S.)

  • The remote I-9 verification process is available for those employees who are working fully off-campus (within the U.S.). If you request to use this process you will be asked to share your work location, supervisor's name, and department.
  • Choose an authorized representative to meet in-person and verify your appropriate supporting documents. This can be any responsible citizen or documented alien adult who can physically meet with you (including your spouse or family member).
  • Use this form to tell us about your authorized representative selection.
  • MIT I-9 Operations will send your authorized representative a link with instructions on how to log into the I-9 system and reverify your current Form I-9.
  • You will meet with your authorized representative and provide them with your appropriate supporting documents for review.
  • Your authorized representative will log into the system to complete Section 3 of Form I-9 and attest that they have seen the original documents and upload copies to the system.
