This was really easy and safe, and now gives me a way to securely log on to the IRS web site. State of the art application, with video scanning of my face with my IPhone, and photo uploading of my photo ID. They kept me informed of progress and security with texts to my smart phone,
Easy and secure!

Great security takes a while to set up.
September 4, 2022

The information collected and the association with government agencies makes me comfortable with the security side of things. In order to set this up, be prepared to give more of your personal information than you normally would. And expect to spend more time than you have in the past. I think you will be happy using id.me.

After the hiccup!
September 4, 2022

Submitting an acceptable photo of my passport (around midnight) was my particular hiccup. It was overcome on the 2nd or 3rd attempt and the process then went smoothly until completion!
Thank you ID.me.

Not bad!

The process was quite easy! I had a little trouble with them being unable to read the dd214. Once I used an alternet method for identification it was smooth sailing.

Using ID.me was super easy
September 14, 2022

Didn't have to wait long for verification by an agent, it was obvious what documents I needed to upload and how to do it. Also seamless to use both a phone and a computer to do the uploads and not have to worry about how I get photos from my phone onto my computer.

Fun's I.D.Me Review
September 4, 2022

I'm really not even entirely sure what I.D.Me is really all about, but I had to do it, and at first I struggled with it a bit and grew a bit frustrated, but after having to do it a coue different times and finally sitting down to do it with no outside distractions, it became a little bit easier and I was able to breeze right through it.
