I-9 Verification for Teen Interns

Welcome to your After School Matters Internship!

Here are a few things you need to do before your program starts.

All ASM internships require teens to submit an I-9 form before they start their program. After accepting your internship offer you will be asked to sign up for a document collection day so you can submit your necessary documentation. At the document collection site, you will be asked to present certain documents like your birth certificate or social security card for I-9 verification and to be sure all names match in our system. Let’s get started!

  • Step 1: Schedule your document collection day below.
  • Step 2: Gather your Social Security Card and other required documents.
  • Step 3: Collect the documents you’ll need to complete the I-9 Form. Original documents only, no photocopies.
  • Step 4: Present your documents on the date and time you selected.
