I love the help they giving me and I would to come
Due to an issue with the other verification options, more than likely my older computer, I was able to easily register through ID.me. When living abroad it is occasionally necessary to get through to US Agencies and ID.me is that link for me. I was also very happy with the Customer Service provided during the video confirmation call.
Extremely simple from start to finish! Thank you very much!

It was a very good experience and helpful for what I needed.
Worth it just timing was forever but it was good I did however have trouble with the picture part but all of everything else was done in great time
IDs and facial recognition are great but would like to see biometric to be added.
This was a difficult website to use. I had a lot of documents to upload. My experience using this was not that great.
It took me days to perform a simple operation, and the reasons for failure at each step were not clear. Once I finally got to an agent the video conferencing tools were clearly underdeveloped and slapdash. I hope I never need to use this site again.
