Exasperating since this makes me feel quite confused and out of sorts.
Quick and easy.
Had to verify that I am me to get my tax return.
Time consuming and I didn't quite feel secure about the ID.me website as you have to be weary of all sources. I'll get over my distrust
You will be giving the government access to your IPad and phone. It could have all been accomplished on one device. Will they use this information for other purposes? Are they capable of keeping the information secure.
No issues. Worked completely fine. Quick and easy process.
It motivated me through the process to see what was going to happen next page after page.
It was very simple to upload your information and take picture,and in about 10 minutes after done. You get email saying that you id is set up
I wasn't sure at first and worried about a safe environment to leave my delicate information. But once I got started and realized I had nothing to worry about due to all the security checks I felt at ease and knew my information was protected.
Provides every need. Quick easy questions. Their response back was fast.
I had social security sign in issues that you repaired
The experience itself was fine, but there is absolutely no info on what they do with your data and what your protections are. There are humans in a common area talking to multiple people and they are taking images of your docs like DL, SS# etc. No provision to ask for your data to be deleted once used - which California law says we can now ask for.
I was looking for discount admissions and it directed me to this ID.me. We are military family and sometimes this kind of experience are pricey. And so I created an ID.me account and it sure gave some good prices.
