      Once the employee clicks on the link, they will be prompted to input their Social Security number & date of birth to confirm their identity. After inputting this info, GoCo should be able to locate their profile & they can continue onboarding as normal.

      🚨 Please note that an Employee will NOT be able to use the company onboarding link if their SSN and DOB are not already in GoCo! If you do not know the DOB or SSN prior to sending the EE an onboarding link, please use the unique link from the EE profile.

      Where can I find personalized Onboarding Invite Links?

      If your employees do have access to email, then they will each have personalized onboarding links created when you are hiring them. You can either choose to send this during the hiring or afterward by visiting your Teams page.

      Employees that have not been sent their onboarding invites will have labels on their team member cards. To view all of the users in this category, simply switch over to the "Invites" tab.
