Just curious if it's justified for a company to have me fill out all new hire forms without compensation and on my own time (so I-9 forms, tax forms, emergency contacts, several other forms for employee eligibility verification and some release forms that are job specific). I'm used to filling these forms out during work hours when I begin a new job and was under the impression that this does count as "work".
I also do not have a printer/scanner so I just paid FedEx to print around 30 pages that need to be signed, for 5 bucks. Adobe sign wasn't an option and converting everything to Word wasn't either since many of the documents needed reformatting to even insert text into the document.

The bigger question is if it's worth having a fight with your new employer over it. I've had situations where it's been done both on or off the clock. Whether you are prepared to wear the $5 is a decision you will have to make. If it were me, I'd let it go and just get on with my new role :)

If the new hire forms are for yourself, I don't think this counts as work. Its simply paper work to ensure you are hired and the relevant information is on their system when you start to work. It is pretty easy to fill out forms digitally using Adobe PDF, and even the free versions have signature options that use a picture.

Sure, if you do it.
Unsure if they wanted you to do it on your own time or not. If it was a hassle for me I'd just take the forms in on my first day and use their resources.
