Creating an ID.me account
March 3, 2025

The experience was terrible. It was slow and very time consuming. Upload was difficult. Then after getting it created I can't get logged back into the account.

Great Efficient Idea
March 3, 2025

Except for one recent unusual login error message, ID.me has worked smoothly and quickly. Less passwords and more time is called efficient in my book. I hope it's expanded for all government services.

Great experience
March 3, 2025

I am not a great computer person but following the instructions was very easy for me since I have delayed processing. I took my time and followed the instructions for uploading all pertinent documents into the portal. The wait time was no longer than 30 minutes which gave me time to gather myself since I have sensory issues. The gentleman was very helpful and explained everything to me in detail and did not make me feel insecure about using the system. I felt safe to know my documents are in a safe portal. I would recommend this to anyone who is thinking about joining a system that keeps your information on file and links you to the institution of your choice.

ID.me is a secure way to access information needed. You also can connect with the IRS and find out information as well. I would highly recommend using ID.me.
