Question
I am running an employment verification on a candidate who was self-employed. Will Checkr accept a W9 as proof of employment?
Answer
No, a W9 is not currently an accepted form of documentation. Accepted documents include:
- W-2 (for all years worked at the employer in question)
- 1099
- Paystubs (if no W-2 or 1099 available)
- Schedule C (if self-employed without 1099)
