What information do my international contractors need to enroll?

Introduction

We aim to make the enrollment process as simple and efficient as possible for your contractors. Once a contractor has all of the necessary documents gathered, it should take them less than twenty-five minutes to complete their enrollment. The following is a comprehensive checklist that is provided to international contractors to assist them in planning and gathering all required enrollment documents. This checklist is also available in our Help Center. In addition to in-application and Help Center articles, contractors also have full access to Highwire’s Support Team via phone or live messaging.
