Nothing at all
May 7, 2025

It took me an hour to prove who I am. I got a message that something went wrong but no information as to how to fix it. I'm a volunteer at the VSO office in Abington, MA and it was time to go home. So I just shut down the computer and went home.

Signing On Problems
May 7, 2025

My experience at trying to sign up at home should have been easier. Going to USPS to get help was not practical. Setting up a time to have a VA assistant avoided problems all around.

First time video connection
May 7, 2025

Delightful! Learn something about video document management. Information required was reasonable. Need to figure if passport is useful. Way too much background colors to allow for a clear transmission of data.

Redundant Requirement
May 7, 2025

I have already setup the government required "login. Gov". I see no reason the government needs TWO seemingly redundant programs.

ID. Me setup and logon
May 6, 2025

Setup was a bit challenging since I don't have a smartphone (don't do web activities though I could). They worked with me by phone to verify me, so they went an "extra mile".

It actually took months for me to gain access to my account because I changed my phone number. Once I changed my phone number I could not receive texts to change my password until I used the facial recognition process.
