Employment Paperwork

We are pleased to have you join Cal State Northridge and hope you will find your experience here rewarding. As a new member of our campus, there are several things you need to be aware of and paperwork that must be completed to ensure we can properly establish your appointment in our system. The next step is to complete the Sign-In Process with Human Resources. All CSUN employees must complete the Sign-In Process prior to performing any work.

New Employee Paperwork - The Sign-In Process

You are required to complete the Sign-In Process which consists of submitting your hiring paperwork and verifying your I-9 Form in the Office of Human Resources:

• If you are new to California State University, Northridge or
• If your previous employment at this campus ended more than 18 months ago.

Federal law and CSU policies require that your Employment Eligibility Verification forms (INS Form I-9) be completed no later than the first effective day of your appointment.

What You Will Need To Bring

• To verify your identity and eligibility to work, documents that demonstrate your identity and your eligibility to work in the United States which meet legal requirements of the Immigration and Reform Control Act must be presented. Documents that are acceptable to provide employment authorization may be found on the last page of the I-9 Form.
• In order to establish your Payroll records, it is required that your name and Social Security Number are reported to the Internal Revenue Service and California Franchise Tax Board exactly as stated on your Social Security card. To help expedite this verification processes please bring your original Social Security Card with you to complete the Sign-In Process. If necessary, you may request a new card from the Social Security Administration.
