Having worked in the field of web access management and systems security, I feel comfortable saying that ID.me is a simple, cost-effective means that enables ID verification across multiple platforms; a process known as Single Sign-On (SSO for short). Using 2-factor authentication (2FA), it ensures that you are properly authenticated, as you attempt to access the systems, you are authenticated as having the correct credentials for access to a given system, and your request(s) to access the apps/data are also authenticated. This authentication occurs PRIOR to you actually being passed to the system(s) which further ensures the access to and safety/integrity of the data.

Easier than I thought
June 3, 2025

Signing up for ID.me was a breeze, very easy & simple. Once I finished the last step it connected me immediately to my SS account which had been locked out my reach for months due to an error with my login credentials.

User Friendly
June 3, 2025

Once you're registered, it is amazing how much personal data is available just from my VA records. Tomorrow, I will explore further. I have an issue brewing with IRS and SSA. The reduction of SSA benefits via the IRS tax year 2023 computations is my problem. Hopefully, ID.me will aid me in this dilemma.

A god damn joke

Nothing but a joke & waste of time! I wouldn't recommend this to a single person no matter how much I disliked them. It didn't help in the least bit!

I had difficulties getting it done but in the end I got it all done. After being locked out of the account twice I finally had to go get it done on a computer instead of a phone or laptop
