Easy to Set Up
April 22, 2025

I had to have my picture ID that is not expired handy. You could take a picture of it front and back in real time or take a picture of it ahead of time to upload. Taking a head of time allowed me to edit out the background so you could only see the ID. Uploaded, they verified it was real then they took a picture of me to compare to ID photo to make sure it was really me. Once approved, I had to verify my personal info. And put in a code they set me to access my account.

Had multiple valid proof identification, still needed to do a video call, alright fine, had to wait 30 minutes only to have audio errors on the agents end and he didn't know how to fix so he ended the call, waited another 25 minutes for another agent and finally we got the ball rolling only for her to look over the same information that was already displayed. A complete waste of time.

Verifying your identity on ID me
April 22, 2025

I've been struggling for some time now to get my identity verified with ID me and the IRS due to identity theft. The support link was very helpful and helping me get started in re-verifying my identity. The process was more complex than it had been in the past and I was most appreciative of that. And I also appreciated the video call in which my documents were more completely identified and visually I could be identified

Yes… I too felt that emotional trauma of "What happened, Why, I Need to get into my account!" Believe me… it took me by surprise. However, I followed the process and regained my emotions and had to trust the process of getting back into the account. Once I did all the steps it required, it still gave me the confidence that doing those steps would make it very difficult for anyone else pretending to be you to gain access to your account. It took less time the second time through to regain access to my account and I'm so thankful for that! These agencies are making the process simpler and more efficient for each of us. Just Breathe… and trust the process.

Sinceramente e batallado un poco porque al ingresar si pierdes tu número de teléfono me es más difícil poder ingresar a mi cuenta, fuera más sencillo si al extraviar o perder tu número telefónico uviera la opción de mandarte un código electronico
