How to Fax a I-9 Form from iPad: Step-by-Step

  1. 1

    Download TigerFax

    Install TigerFax from the App Store on your iPad. It's free to start — no credit card required.

    💡 Tip: TigerFax is optimized for iPadOS 15+ and works on all iPads running iOS 15 or later.

  2. 2

    Scan your I-9 Form with iPad

    Open TigerFax and tap the camera icon. Position your iPad about 12 inches above the I-9 Form and let the auto-capture detect the edges. The iPad's rear camera works great for scanning documents. For best results, use the iPad in landscape mode and ensure even lighting across the document.

  3. 3

    Upload your I-9 Form from iPad

    Alternatively, tap the upload icon to import your I-9 Form from Files, iCloud Drive, or any connected cloud storage. On iPad, you can use Split View to open Files or Photos alongside TigerFax, making it easy to drag and drop documents directly into the app.

    💡 Tip: PDF format preserves I-9 Form formatting best. If you have a digital copy, upload it instead of scanning for the clearest result.
