I was led to believe that ID.me was a required to access my social security account. It is not. I would not have gone through the multistep process if I had known this. The introduction to this system should be provided in great detail to all prior to signing people up in the system. Is it mandatory? NO? Then provide this in all introductory information - "You do not have to use the ID.me process" prior walking you through the process.
