I needed help getting on to the IRS site and ID.me made it so easy for me to understand what to do, and I am 74 and barely computer savvy. Thank you for such clear and easy directions without computer-speak and phrases I don't understand.

Provided a passport, provided a drivers license front and back, provided selfies. I've been trying over a year to get verified by this company. They state that I need to have video capability. Well, I don't. I have a desktop computer without a camera.

Simple and well thought out.
August 6, 2022

The whole experience was smooth, predictable, and well-designed; I was impressed! I had only one issue, where my license got rejected, because my last name comes first on it. All I had to do was just upload it again, and for some reason it worked fine the second time.
