Don't have two forms of I.D. (license, employee, apply)

[11thzodiac]

But I just ordered a birth certificate from the state of Ohio. They said to come pick it up by 4 today (but I don't live in Ohio) and if I don't they'll send it out within the next day by mail. However I'm confused. It says on the website that it takes 3 dreadful weeks to come in the mail but in the email that they sent me that it takes 1 business day to be sent out.

Are they talking about a temporary birth certificate? Is there a such thing as a temporary birth certificate or does that only happen with drivers licenses?

Does this mean I have wait for almost a month before I can apply for a new job? Are there jobs that dont require two forms of I.D.?

Have your SSN card? That's usually an acceptable 2nd document as well.

The 3 weeks is probably if you were to order a certified copy of your BC through the website or order form, time from order to processing to receipt in the mail.

You don't have a drivers license and a state I.D. or a S.S. Card? Is this your first job? Most jobs require two forms of I.D.

Grabbed the below from IRS.gov, but does not seem to have any branding or formatting indicating "official." Therefore, YMMV.

This is what I have been asked to produce for several new jobs since c. 2010, and even (on rare occasion) in even more detail to specific clients before being allowed onsite...the latter only happening a few times in twenty years. Purpose being to exclude illegal aliens from employment opportunities, thus they'll self-deport... presumably. "I wish" every job in America required that, and more, checked off against a national database (if existed, you'd only have to prove that "you are you," via say fingerprints, DNA, or iris scans. All three should be taken from children at-birth IMO, making birth certificate or obtaining other docs a true dawdle from then on in.

Identity Verification Requirements
Applicants must provide a document, or a combination of documents, listed in the chart below.
One document must prove citizenship; the other must prove identity. Copies will not be accepted,
only originals and certified.

Exception: If the only document available to prove citizenship is listed in E, then two additional
documents must be provided to prove identity and employment eligibility. The following
example lists the three possible combinations of documents that are required:

Examples:

Example #1: A + B or C or D
Example #2: B + C
Example #3: C + D + E

A. Proof of Citizenship and Identity and Employment Eligibility

* U.S. Passport (can not accept an expired Passport)

B. Proof of Citizenship and Employment Eligibility

*Original or certified copy of a birth certificate (from the Bureau of Vital Statistics not hospital
certificate), if born in U.S. or U.S. Territory. (Photo copies are not accepted)
*Certification of Birth Abroad FS-545 or DS-1350
*U.S. Citizen Identification Card I-197
*Identification Card for Use of Resident Citizen in the U.S. I-179

C. Proof of Identity only

*Valid State Driver’s License
*Valid State ID

D. Proof of Employment Eligibility only

*U.S. Social Security Card

E. Proof of Citizenship only.

*Citizenship Certificate
*Naturalization Certificate
*State Department Form 240
Failure to provide this proof of U.S. Citizenship will result in your application being placed in
suspense, pending receipt of acceptable proof of U.S. citizenship.

Ask the employer to be patient while you re-acquire your identity stuff. You can get expedited replacement from DMV, county records, etc. if you look for it.

Always keep multiple identity documents in a safe location in your home. If you lose some of your ID documents, you have others that can be a backup.

You explain the situation. Bring a police report if necessary. There's nothing else you can do.
How the potential employer proceeds is really out of your control.

You then need to replace all of your documents - basically follow the process after an ID theft and file all the necessary paperwork, etc. Sorry this happened to you - but you potentially have bigger issues at this point than having your job interview delayed.

Most jobs don't (nor should) require ID at time of interview. If they do want to see something a brief and clear explanation of your predicament and pursuit of replacement documents should suffice.
For the I-9 form ID documents or receipt of documents is only required after hire and legally the employee has 3 days to provide. If receipt of documents provided then have 90 days to provide the actual documents.
