Symptom
- New joiner cannot see the “Complete Form I‑9 Section 1 Awaiting SSN” task on their home page after they become employee.
- When a candidate completes I-9 Section 1 without an SSN (triggering the "Awaiting SSN" flow) and is then hired via Manage Pending Hires (MPH), the resulting "Complete Form I-9 Section 1 Awaiting SSN" task is invisible to the employee on their homepage.
- The BPE Onboarding2I9Workflow instance is unconditionally terminated during MPH without creating a replacement task record for the now-hired employee.
- When the task was assigned to the ONB external user before hire, it should persist and remain actionable by the employee account after hire — but it does not.
Environment

Reproducing the Issue

- Confirm that an outstanding “Complete Form I‑9 Section 1 Awaiting SSN” task exists in onboarding dashboard.
