HR Front End Transaction – Visa Change

Transaction Type – Employee Data Change

Routing required – Home Org Unit, Campus HR (see note if home org is Fellowship Office)

The University of Illinois uses Tracker for completing I-9s. The employee must complete and sign (electronically) Section 1 on or before their first day of work for pay. The appropriate I-9 Manager or Designated Agent must complete and sign (electronically) Section 2 no later than the third day of work for pay. The I-9 must be completed in Tracker before the HR Front End transaction is routed to campus human resources/Student Employment. Campus human resources/Student Employment will return any transaction that does not have an I-9 completed in Tracker. Should a transaction be returned, the unit must ensure the I-9 is complete in Tracker, then route the transaction once again to campus human resources. Failure to complete the I-9 in a timely manner and/or attached to the HRFE transaction can delay payment to the employee.
