What is the purpose of Form I-9?

  1. To apply for unemployment benefits

  2. To verify employment eligibility

  3. To receive earned income credit

  4. To withhold state taxes

The correct answer is: To verify employment eligibility

The purpose of Form I-9 is to verify employment eligibility. This form is required by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and is used by employers to confirm that new employees are legally authorized to work in the United States. When an employee completes this form, they must provide documentation that establishes their identity and employment authorization, such as a passport or a driver's license accompanied by a Social Security card. Collecting this information helps ensure compliance with immigration laws and protects the rights of workers. The other options pertain to different aspects of employment and taxation. Form I-9 does not relate to unemployment benefits or earned income credit, nor does it involve the withholding of state taxes, which are addressed through different forms such as the W-4 for tax withholding purposes.
