Tedious but worth it.
September 24, 2024

I spent hours trying to log in but the process did not work for me. Day 2 I tried again and after more online verification I was able to connect to a live agent. She could not see my ID well enough and said I would get an email to try again. The 2nd try it worked!

Safe and secure ID verification
September 24, 2024

Used it for the first time, with some trepidation, not sure how reliable it is (especially with sensitive documentations) and doubting if it is user friendly.
Even I cross- checked with another Govt. Agency, who assured the usefulness and also trust worthy-ness. All this without the usual sterness of a Govt. Business and simple and straightforward interface/ web page and prompt follow through.

A Necessary Evil
September 24, 2024

Unfortunately,
We live in an age of "digitalness", that is, we exist in 1's and 0's, so we must be verified by 1's and 0's.
I miss the days of, "Hi, my name is John", and no one questioned who I was.
