It only took a couple of minutes. There was too much light for my selfie the first try (I got a message letting me know). Turned off the light switch and took it again with no issues. It was like I had someone right next to me giving me step by step instructions. I never left my office.

Do not use!
November 10, 2024

I signed up to get my social security information and it gave me this message "Unable to complete your request. Try again later" after I spent my time signing up and entering all my personal information….I can't even get the social security amount I needed from the website.

Extremely helpful
November 10, 2024

I use ID.me everywhere that I can. It makes signing into gov and state sites extremely easy and seamless. Verifying your identity quickly with those kind of sites quickly is very useful. I feel like it helps relieve some of the stress that you might feel trying to get things like healthcare records from the VA or a new social nonexistent.

Wasted time taking pictures, front and back of 2 documents uploading them and then still needing video call to verify. Whats the point of uploading if they are not used? Then to take a survey to tell them it was a big waste of time as I could not get into the NJ dept of Taxation by using the app.

Easy to set up and use
November 10, 2024

Setting up ID.me was simple, and even somewhat interesting regarding the selfie video. I had never seen anything quite like that. ID.me will greatly simplify access to government agencies.

Following instructions
It never came to an end
Looped me back to the beginning
Software algorithms, lacking maturity
Frustrating as all we have come to expect
From our government.!

I believe my experience was easy in regards to ID.ME. As for the site requiring the verification became a little difficult. As of right now I'm trying to verify what the issue is.

Verify & accuracy on point.
November 10, 2024

The fact that I can use ID.me for reasons to actually verify I am who I say I am, is a tremendous relief. It makes me feel secure when it comes to verification and validation on important websites especially.gov websites.

Pray that you do not have to use this
November 10, 2024

If you have to use a public computer, the program gets blocked, you can set up an account but the computers will block you opening the program.
