Spammed me non-stop after using this for something. Had no other choice but to use it. Also requires at least 100 characters.
I really liked how it was so easy and how it filled in most of the information! And the security is great! Definitely coming back next year to do my taxes! And would definitely recommend!
I use ID. Me to access my social security and income tax. It is easier for me living in my old country which is in Philippines.
After the verification process was done it said m I selfie was not accepted and then I got sent to LinkedIn and the the SS office still not sure if my taxes got filed?
Signing in to system to acquire a sign in was easy and fast. This ID. Me is very important and useful for Government Departments sign in.
You have no other choice. Own a smartphone w/ a good camera and lots of spare memory space to download Zoom or whatever app this for profit agency are pushing at the time. Jump thru hoops to prove that you are worthy or be unable to access government services. This is just a barrier to access basic services.
Muy buen servicio lo atienden con amabilidad Buena atención. Me encantó aberme comunicado con ID 100/
The whole process was painless and went extremely smoothly and just takes under 5 minutes. Considering that this is for our own security especially in this digital scam age, I was happy to do it and expected a lot more difficulty and time than it actually took, so I would highly recommend it.
Hi Mrs, your service so wonderful and helpful fast and easy convenience when I need it, I am very satisfied thank you so much.!
You have to hand over your biometric data in addition to your contact info and government documentation. Everytime. They claim it's like barely more work than setting up a password but it's not true. I hate that they've wriggled themselves into bed with essential government agencies like the IRS and established themselves as the gatekeepers to essential citizen services with no alternative means of online accessibility.
Asido la mejor atencion que e recibido y la manera mas facil de llenar documento :) me siento satisfecho de aver acudido a esta pagina para resolver mis problemas
It is super important to have some sort of verification, which has an ID who can identify you are an American citizen. I strongly recommend that you get this completed. It'll protect your identity in the future because there are so many hackers and thieves out there.
As a senior I found the process easy and gave me a sense of security with all the steps to insure my identity.
Todo bien exitoso, muy amable El ajente que me atendio y estoy supercomplasida muchas grasias felicitaciones por su buen trabajo
How can we possibly know our data is secure? Are the latest protocols employing the latest and most robust state of the art technology, etc. in place to protect us? Of course they will tell us our data is safe. But being that so much personal data is being stored on such a platform, we should at the very least be skeptical. Nothing is 100% impermeable.
I needed to reset my MFA during a tax season in a short period of time. I thank my Lord God for this product: it worked fast to help me authenticate, when I followed each step correctly.
In order to prove to the government who you are, you have to give all your data to this third party. Not only do they want a picture of your ID, they want a video selfie. Why would they need to store this data? And the video uploaded returned error messages 4 times. We shouldn't have to do all this just to interact with a government agency.
It was Easy and fast. I did not need to spend time in long time driving to verify myself. And the connection with the other app was very fast. In overall I did take too much time to register, it was fast. The platform is also secured. I really appreciate the experience. Thank you.
Me pareció muy buena la atención y la información es muy clara y precisa, además fue muy eficiente para la necesidad del momento
IRS sent a mail asking my verification.
It was user friendly, very easy to use. I had no issues to follow. I was able to finish from start to finish in less than 10 minutes.
