Bring proper identification

In order to complete this paperwork, many U.S. citizens wishing to work in the United States typically bring a state-issued driver's license or identification card and a Social Security card. However, there are several forms of verification that can be used. 

Go to Part 8 of the USCIS Handbook for Employers (M-274) to see more forms of acceptable documentation.
