List A documents establish both identity and work authorization, meaning employees presenting a valid List A document need no additional documentation to complete I-9 Section 2. Acceptable List A documents include: U.S. passport (book or card), unexpired foreign passport containing a temporary I-551 stamp or I-551 printed notation on a machine-readable immigrant visa, Permanent Resident Card (Form I-551, commonly called a "green card"), Alien Registration Receipt Card (Form I-551), unexpired Employment Authorization Document (EAD) issued by DHS (Form I-766 or Form I-688B), and unexpired foreign passport with Form I-94 or Form I-94A indicating refugee or asylum status that authorizes employment. Employers must accept any valid List A document the employee presents and cannot require specific documents or reject valid identification based on personal preference, national origin concerns, or unfamiliarity with document types—such actions constitute illegal discrimination.

Common errors with List A documents include: accepting expired passports or EAD cards without reverification, failing to examine the entire document for obvious fraud indicators like photo inconsistencies or altered expiration dates, recording incorrect document numbers or expiration dates in Section 2 fields, requiring employees with valid U.S. passports to provide additional identity documents, and rejecting foreign passports with valid work authorization because the employer is unfamiliar with I-94 notations or refugee stamps. During I-9 completion, the authorized representative must physically examine the original document (not photocopies), verify the document reasonably appears genuine and relates to the person presenting it, and record the document title, issuing authority, document number, and expiration date in Section 2. Employers should train all authorized representatives on List A document features and anti-discrimination rules to avoid the dual risks of accepting fraudulent documents or illegally rejecting valid ones.

Most REO teams request a consistent photo set that starts with front, side, and rear elevations, followed by address markers, mailbox or unit IDs, approaches and parking, fence and gate status, and visible hazards. Exterior proof is captured through Exterior Only Property Inspection. If access is granted, Interior and Exterior Property Inspection adds rooms and simple utility indicators to show habitability and risk items. Posting photos and vacancy checks are handled with Occupancy Verification and Vacant Property Condition Check. Delivery includes time stamped images arranged for bank files. Service covers Green Valley Ranch Neighborhood, Seven Hills, Inspirada, Silverado Ranch, Southern Highlands, Mountains Edge, Centennial Hills, and Desert Shores.

An encroachment release is used when a structure such as a fence, wall, shed, or landscaping sits inside a recorded easement corridor. The release acknowledges the condition and preserves the utility’s right to access the area in the future.

• What it covers: Identifies the encroaching improvement, sets access terms, and clarifies who pays to move or replace the item if maintenance requires removal.
• Why it is notarized: The release affects property rights and is recorded with the county. A proper acknowledgment allows the Recorder to accept and index it.
• Who signs: The owner of record or authorized representative. A utility, HOA, or developer may countersign depending on the form.
• Practical tip: Attach a clear exhibit map that matches the legal description to prevent rejection.
