Government Forms
The current Government forms available are:
- I9
- W4 Federal
- W4 State
The above-listed forms cannot be modified, and in the event that any of the above-listed forms are updated by the Government, Arcoro will update the forms. No other forms will be listed here.
The only items that can be adjusted from this page are which job titles and/or locations are presented in the forms.
State W4
The State W4 that is presented to a new hire will be based on the primary state selected on the "Contact" tab of the new hire experience. The new hire's primary state will be pre-populated to align with their work state, but can be updated by the new hire if they work and live in different states.
Form Activation Settings
"Form Activation Settings" are available for both Custom and Government Forms to specify which business units and/or Jobs should see the form(s) during their Onboarding.
After configuring the form activation settings for a form, it can help to test the form and see if it can be completed with a test user.
- Click ... from the Action column and click Form Activation Settings.
- The form activation settings allow you to specify who should view a particular form based on their location and/or job title. Generally, these do not need to be changed for Government forms. If any checkbox is unchecked, the new hire for the location/job title will not be presented with the form.
- If you have not enabled the option for a form to be shown to all locations and jobs by default, you must go back to the form activation settings to enable a form for any new location and/or job added later.
