Respectful Professional
September 14, 2022

My overall experience with the online agent went extremely well. It's fast and convenient verses traveling to an office and waiting in a waiting room. I can just get the task done over the phone with a professional.

Surprisingly easy AND secure!
June 10, 2022

I frequently need access to my IRS files and ID.me seems to be exactly what I needed. Some may worry about much of your private info being shared with the IRS.
If you're aware enough, they probably have everything they need on you anyways.
It's super easy to log in now to access all of my records.

ID Verification
September 14, 2022

My experience with id.me overall was very good! When I first went to the site I was having trouble with logging in (my phone number had changed and my account still had my old number). So I contacted tech support and was able to get the issue resolved and I regained access to my account within the same day! As far as the ID verification I would recommend doing a live video chat bc the other way was much harder. You will probably have a bit of a wait time for the video call but it's well worth it! My representative was great and it didn't take long to complete the process! Once your verified everything works great! No issues!

I have not had a problem dealing or verifying who I am with ID.me. The interface is plain enough. I have used a combination of phone and desktop to do things. Woo Hoo

This system so far is much easier to navigate and utilize that MyHealthEvet.
