I just want to learn something new that I has done online something like this. I am get my experience to do online than mail my letter to Ssa than being delayed. It's give me alike wow give me time not has to worry abt not mail instead to do online I will tell my friend and my relatives too.
I comprehend that with so much fraud happening, it's necessary for the government to take all these extra measures for trying to combat that. In the other hand, I feel like the technology related to biometrics should be advanced enough these days to automate the process of verifying someones identity if they take a selfie and provide two pieces of ID to the site though.
In my case, my attempt to verify my identity on my own using ID.me did not work and I had to wait for a service rep for about an hour, on top of approximately 30 minutes I spent creating an account on USPTOs website, signing up for ID.me and getting my documents together.
My customer service rep was nice and effecient with her job though, which I appreciate
