FORMS TO BE COMPLETED WHEN HIRING AN EMPLOYEE
All forms are color highlighted for your convenience. Pink highlighted areas are to be completed by the employer. All yellow highlighted areas are to be completed by the employee. Please be sure that all highlighted areas are completed.
Employee Hiring Notice - This form is to be completed by the employer. It tells ARIS Solutions who you are hiring, what the employee’s address is for mailing paychecks, along with their Social Security number. The employer signs this form to authorize hiring the employee.
Employee Compliance with Agency of Human Services Background Check Policy This form must be reviewed and signed by the employee. Employees having convictions or findings as indicated on the form may not be paid by ARIS Solutions to provide services.
Forms W-4 and W-4 VT - These forms are completed by the employee. The forms are required as they provide specific tax withholding information for each employee.
Employment Eligibility Verification - This form is required by the Department of Justice. The purpose of the form is to assure the Dept. of Justice that the person being hired is legally able to work in the United States. The employer must look at the original identification information (see List of Acceptable Documents) and write this information down directly on the form. It is not necessary to send in photo copies of the identification documents. The employee fills out and signs the top yellow highlighted section of the form. The employer fills out and signs the middle pink highlighted section of the form.
Background Check Forms - All employees are required by the State of Vermont to have background checks completed whenever working for a new employer. These background checks must be filled out by the employee and signed by the employee. They include a check of the Vermont Adult Abuse and Child Abuse Registries, the Vermont Crime Information Center along with the Department of Motor Vehicles. All forms must be submitted when hiring an employee. If your employee will not be driving while working please indicate this in writing directly on the DMV form. The employer will be notified in writing once all background checks have been completed. Please be aware that background checks are run for Vermont findings, only. Background checks provided by ARIS Solutions will not result in notification of criminal convictions or abuse substantiations founded in any state other than Vermont. Employers may choose to go online to conduct their own independent background checks at their own cost.
Direct Deposit Form - This is an optional form. We strongly encourage employees to use Direct Deposit to receive their pay. This eliminates any possible delays in the mail and assures that funds are automatically deposited into the employees account on payday. It may take up to two payroll periods for the Direct Deposit process to take place. Regular checks will be mailed to employees until the Direct Deposit account information is secured in our system.
