Final answer:

The documents that can be accepted as both proof of identity and employment authorization for Form I-9 are a Passport, Permanent Resident Card, and Employment Authorization Document.

Step-by-step explanation:

When completing the Form I-9, documents that are accepted as both proof of identity and employment authorization include:

  • Passport
  • Permanent Resident Card (also known as a Green Card)
  • Employment Authorization Document

Other documents such as a Driver's License or a Social Security Card can be provided, but only as proof of identity or employment authorization respectively, not for both purposes. A Driver's License, which proves identity, must be accompanied by a document that proves employment authorization, like a Social Security Card (not all Social Security Cards are acceptable, such as those stating 'Not valid for employment'). In contrast, materials such as a Passport, Permanent Resident Card, or Employment Authorization Document validate both aspects with a single document.

Italics, underline, and other formatting options, such as

Heading 2

and

Heading 3

, have not been used as they were not relevant for the clarity of this response.
