Used ID.me to register and verify me with the I RS online account. Went swiftly and effortlessly. Very thankful. BTW the I RS account is terrific, with loads of info on your own personal data.

Awesome service!
March 31, 2023

Usually dealing with the IRS can be a pain so I wasn't looking forward to requesting information but with id.me they did a quick video chat from the privacy of my own home (I was actually out in my garage at the time!) and I had the info I needed within 10 minutes. I was absolutely thrilled with their service.

At first, I thought it was a bit much of what was required I sent because I also wondered if what I was sending was also being protected but I also understood that it was for security measures and protection for me and the company.
