The beginning of the rest of MY life
August 23, 2022

I just got off a video call with Nigel he was able to help me verify all my documents and now I'm prepared to submit my application to the EDD for my maternity leave it's my first child so everything is scary and more difficult the last thing I wanted was to stress over contacting the IRS and EDD but through ID me it's as simple as a fingerprint can get me access to all my hard working taxes

Easy
August 22, 2022

It was much easier than what I thought it would be. I am a veteran, but only have DD214. I figured I would have to remember where it was, dug it out, put in a bunch of info. Nope punch a couple buttons, boom! Done!

I think that you can send ads about this program. Send it out to company's for their business. Make it something that the DMV can use.

Almost Perfect
August 22, 2022

The process to ID.ME is simple and easy. My only problem was that I got several outside calls and this caused me to have to repeat a step. I would suggest to notify people not to call for 5 minutes.

Safe and secure
August 22, 2022

I find it good with one question and a suggestion. Question - I checked to upload images of my passport card but why it leads me to upload my driver's license instead? I chose my passport card was this is the only piece of ID that was not comprised (my passport book was compromised too), Suggestion - I was sitting too far from the webcam and I didn't notice the note on the bottom of the screen asking me to sit closer until quite sometime later. I think it would be better to have the warning in RED and in the middle of the screen so it cannot be overlooked.
