Great program!
March 25, 2023

I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because I still have not been able to get my driver's license in the system. But I got the other things in just fine.

It was wonderful until the last minute when app asked for my last name - saying my last name could be either my name Adriana or Gil - the second word on my last name which is compound by two words. United States has more than 300 millions habitants and Latin American ethnicity uses two last name... the result the application failed to verify my identity and prohibits me from creating and access my personal information which is the end because there is not way to communicate with ID.me about it. If some one read this message, please i need help to access IRS information.

Getting logged on, being identified, and then verified as to my actual identify was fast, easy, and secure. I was impressed with the seamless flow of website requests and my answers that I input. Combined with my smart phone and PC, it was an extremely satisfying experience.
