New Virtual I-9 Document Review Service Coming Soon from Sterling and ID.me
03 Août 2023 - 2:00PM
Sterling Check Corp. (NASDAQ: STER) (“Sterling”), the largest
provider of identity and background services, and ID.me, the market
leading digital identity and credentials network, today announced
they will be launching a new virtual I-9 document review service in
the coming weeks. As part of the existing Sterling I-9 solution,
ID.me Trusted Referees will examine documents virtually, securely,
and conveniently, enabling employers to complete I-9 requirements
remotely for their new hires.
ID.me and Sterling’s new solution is built upon the recently
announced alternative verification procedures from Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) and United States Citizenship and
Immigration Services (USCIS). Instead of relying on in-person
review conducted by an employer or 3rd party notary, ID.me’s expert
Trusted Referees will be available to complete secure virtual
document review on behalf of the employer.
The ID.me Trusted Referees are screened and trained to
Department of Commerce standards for identity proofing set by the
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Currently 14
federal agencies and 35 state government agencies rely on ID.me’s
Trusted Referees to verify users.
The virtual document review process will be available to new and
existing Sterling I-9 clients who are also E-Verify users in good
standing. The entire process can be completed remotely in 5-10
minutes and is compliant with DHS and USCIS requirements. All
documents examined by ID.me Trusted Referees are retained along
with all other I-9 documents in the Sterling system and available
to employers for audit purposes.
“Our clients have been requesting a more modern, secure I-9
document verification solution for years,” said Josh Peirez, CEO of
Sterling. “Sterling’s new virtual review service will streamline
the I-9 document verification experience for the virtual work
environment.”
This solution builds upon Sterling’s innovative suite of
identity verification solutions for US employers, offered through
an exclusive partnership with ID.me.
“We applaud the Department of Homeland Security for modernizing
onboarding processes to allow for a secure, remote option for I-9
document review,” said Blake Hall, CEO of ID.me. “Our Trusted
Referees are expertly trained to examine identity documents, and
this service can help thousands of employers to efficiently comply
with DHS requirements by leveraging video chat to complete Form
I-9.”
This new solution will be available exclusively to Sterling I-9
clients in the coming weeks. Visit
