ID. Me finally 'I. D' me.
April 29, 2025

It was a little cumbersome. I was somewhat surprised that I need my social security card. It didn't normally use it at all. Since I am 81 years old, my card was old too. I thought the interviewer might give me a hard time, but she was fine.

I don't really have much experience with the IRS as far as all of the burden they carry. As a taxpayer i am in the positive as far as money is concerned over the course of my life up to this point. I hope my future income increases so my contribution may be more beneficial to the people of this nation in the future. I apologize for any disruption as i am still learning to be less intraverted and more introverted in my conversational assessments. Sometimes my frustrations get in the way of productive processes. I am coming to the realization of mood swings. I may be going through menopause. Lol. ID. Me did a fine job. Thank-you

Never too late to learn

Some of us older people are not technologically savvy and I was able to navigate this system and it does make me feel like there is more protection from Identity theft.

As I started, I picked a time where I was totally able to dictate my time to this task with no interruptions. I also got familiar with the program and terminology prior to starting. I faced each area of questions focused and felt accomplishments when I saw the continue button to proceed. The instructions were carefully created to where the simplicity made it easy.

Total bull$#*!. This review is exactly what I was talking about. Why should I have to waste my time on explaining why this is bull$#*!. It should be a very simple process for veterans to get to their doctor or records without having to go through all this trouble.
