Experience

The service was great and it was very helpful. The people I met on video call were able to help me through applying my account. It was good and I was very comfortable to answer all the question given during my video call.

I will soon turn 78 years old.
I am fairly tech savvy.
I would like to know it is necessary to list:
* Login.gov
* ID.me
* DS Logon
And
* MyHealtheVet

When all I want is to log onto the VA site in order to make a hearing aid appointment.?!?

My son had his identity stolen and it messed up so much stuff it's not even real. So we were referred to this site *******@HNRBlock. Once we got half way thru the process it just has been a nightmare trying to get the drivers license and his face recognition to go thru. We tried for over two weeks. It is a good thing to do and have but it can be difficult.

IRS verification
May 7, 2024

It was my first experience with ID.me and I was not sure how they were connected to the IRS at first. It seemed legitimate enough to begin the process and as I went on I became more confident that it was secure and connected to the IRS database! I wish I could have known the connection a little bit sooner so I could have relaxed sooner!

Bad
May 7, 2024

I did not speak to anyone about my tax problem. I don't know what I was doing. I saw one person and I did not know what I was supposed to do next. I needed to discuss my tax issues. I received a refund and paid taxes. I'm truly needs to speak to a tax representative to correct my tax problem. My taxes were mailed and transmitted. The mailed tax papers were sent with a check and the tax transmission papers gave me a refund. Please someone help me. I need help with account management. Do I still pay the balance owed from the mailed transmission?
