The discount helps. Things are getting so expensive. Savings mean a lot.
Great. Individual answered my questions
Efficiently.
The process seemed secure, but required a lot of time. You must send ID.me photos of your drivers license and a selfie. Having a cell phone helps, but is not necessary. The process worked for me, but consumed much time.
