Bring patience when you're new on computer technology! In the end, it's worth the effort! That's all folks.
My advice to everyone is to use ID to make it easier for them to verify our identity against fraud. Very good ID

Safe and secure way to access your IRS account and information. I just told you everything that I needed to tell you and sorry it was less than one hundred characters.

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.
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.
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.
I had to use this to get my tax information and it was so easy to do with the instructions provided. And I believe it's one of the safest as well.
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!
Muy buena el personal que me atendió muy bien porque hablaba en español también y fue rápido en su trabajo no tardo mucho
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
The selfie part was complicated but I was able to finish everything I needed to do and the documents I needed was successfully done right and having all my information correctly done and theirs no mistakes at all
Everything was very easy and I loved the attention. Thank you very much. I thought the process would take longer because it was Memorial Day weekend.
