How to Delete an I-9
Goal
The main purpose of this article is to permanently delete the Form I-9 and/or profile of an employee. Please me aware that before you can delete an employee's profile, all I-9s on the profile must be deleted.
Basic and intermediate users can delete I-9s if Section 2 is not signed. Advanced users can delete I-9s whether Section 2 is signed or not.
Deleting is permanent. Once an I-9 is deleted, the I-9 and any attachments cannot be recovered.
I-9s with an open E-Verify case cannot be deleted. If there is an open E-Verify case you must complete and close that case before you can delete the I-9.
