Changed my email years ago and IDme is still using my old emial & once I'm logged into VA.gov I can't verify myself because of this
Received text message that there was a message for me from SS. I did not respond to link on text message. Did not trust it. Signed in with ID me on SS website. Easy sign in, got message, printed message and done.

This was an easy experience, but unfortunately, my records did not match, and I was unable to get into my account. It was locked out.
THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY! LET HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON JESUS HOLY CHRIST! Die FOR all of our sins AND ROSE HIM UP THE THIRD DAY. AND SAID WHOEVER BELIEVE UPON HIM SHALL NOT PERISH BUT HAVE EVER LASTING ETERNAL LIFE! INDEED TRUE HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH! AMEN! People TAKE HEED INDEED FOR THIS IS TRUE
The ID.me process was quick and straightforward. They do an email confirmation and explain what you need next. The documents you need are listed out and the instructions for submission are clear. There was a 20 minute delay after submitting photos of the documents, then a video call where you hold the same documents up to the screen one at a time so they can see you actually handling them, with your face right there to compare. And then it's done, nothing more to it.
Tried to open my ss and found out I had to redo it. After 2 hours I gave up. Then I notice the id me button. It took only a few minutes to verify me. Much easier for sure
Took me about 45 minutes to get signed in and after filling everything out, uploading documents I need to send pics of my DL and it wouldn't take pegs. Total waste of time, never accomplished anything. Just needed a copy of my DD214.
Accessing SSA and gov agency sites using Is.Me is very convenient and secure. The authentication process is streamlined and in two clicks you are redirected to the portal and account information
Using id.me had made getting into my va.gov and other sites simple and I don't have to remember the password for each just id.me
La mejor experiencia que puedas tener al acceso a formas de manejo a tus finanzas y estatutos con el gobierno federal excelente!
ID.me does not take into account that respective IDs have either a middle name initial or full middle name. Since my state driver's license ID had my middle initial which copied over to my social security account. My social security card has my full middle name. ID.me does not have a message system so that I can send a message to correct my mistake when I accepted incorrect middle name initial instead of my full middle name when I linked my ID.me to my social security account.
I am tax preparer more than 30 years. This is something new for me to verify our identity. I think that ID.me will protect and safe all information which we collect from our clients.
It's was super easy to setup and verify my id. Nothing complicated just need to have access to smart phone / laptop to get this done
Although the wait times were three times longer than predicted, ultimately we got 'er done. The agent was respectful and efficient.
ID.me is a good source to prove that you are the person that have all the documents or ID for me is a trust web that all government agency should use to avoid the scam on their account.
Es algo difícil poner todo la información
I have been using ID.me for several years. It enables me to sign on to federal government websites almost effortlessly. I hate the hassle of proving my identity several times when accessing websites. Once you prove your identity to ID.me one time, you need only provide them with your user I'd and password once. That's all!
I started using ID Me for quite sometime. It started with the NJ Courts for paying traffics tickets. Then, I noticed whenever I would login the site would verify me through different platforms. So I feel my internet interactions was definitely safe and worry free. The trust was extremely important and earned 💯
Most secure one stop shop of security! From shopping discounts, free offers, military first responders educators or students they have it all. Never have had an issue with anything.
