Don't be intimidated if you're not used to seeing yourself without glasses. It'll be over in a jiffy.
It was good and very easy to do and I liked it and I will tell my friends about it
I have been sending them my id for over a week now, and even an official letter from the IRS with my social security number on it, and they have refused it as governmental id. They string you along for ages thinking you're getting somewhere but then fall at the final hurdle. DON'T USE THEM>
I love this new website! You don't have to call and wait on hold for an hour to find out your potential SS benefit amount. I am impressed how streamlined it is and will be my go-to in the future!
It was fairly easy, the wait time seems a little long but not that bad.
I am starving to death, behind on all of my bills, and still have not had a chance to apply for unemployment because ID.me set me back at least 3 months. You cannot use temporary IDs and it does not even check your social security card. A social security number is actually more important and the obvious logical choice since illegal immigrants can more easily acquire another person's ID through various means than their social security card normally.
Very easy process, the only difficult part was providing the 3 month gross wage estimate.
La verdad fue fácil a mi me ayudó a hacer esto mi hija, pero fue una buena experiencia, porque no tan fácil alguien puede hacerse pasar por otra persona, muy seguro.
It's very easy and simple to use fast process and grate team members
Details to upload is difficult if don't have much computer understanding. Computer and cell phone exchange of information needs understanding knowledge.
So far it's been difficult. I think over time it will be easier
My experience was quick and easy! I needed to do a payment plan as soon as possible and using ID.me made the verification process so simple. No hassle no delays just right to the point. Thank you
