ID.me is Amazing!
January 8, 2023

I was trying to get a copy of last year's W2 as requested by a college that my daughter is hoping to get in to, and the IRS referred me to ID.me. I was a little nervous showing my documents to a complete stranger on the other side of the video call. He was very friendly though, and displayed great professionalism in making me feel comfortable.

ID.me verification process
January 8, 2023

It was a little confusing at first. But you can't go further if something is not right! I loved the fact that I could do it from the comfort of my home, in my pjs, in the evening! The gentle who did the video chat verification was professional and I could easily understand him (no heavy accent). I do mean to offend anyone as I am from the South and have a little drawl myself, but I try to speak clearly. Anyway he was professional and polite. The process was quit. Glad to have easier access to my IRS.gov account!
