Troubleshooting

Issues that may cause errors when completing your Form I-9 are typically the result of missing or incorrectly formatted information.

To address this, we recommend the following:

  • Confirm that dates entered use MM/DD/YYYY format

  • If there’s no expiration date or information to enter within a field, leave it blank, do not add “N/A” or a dash

  • Confirm that you have signed the form - If you correct any errors you will be prompted to re-sign the form again, to ensure you are attesting to the changed information

  • If you’re unable to sign the document on mobile or on the Wrapbook app, we recommend trying on a desktop computer

  • When signing, first click the Create button and then click the Submit button. The Create button will only appear blue/active once a name is entered. If you can’t click the Create button, click your signature line again to make sure you’ve typed your name in the signature field.

  • If you realize during signing that you’ve entered the wrong name, you can click Back, then click on the signature field to update it.
