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.

Asks for more personal info than needed
February 29, 2024

They "required" much more personal info than needed to verify my status as a teacher, especially since it's verifiable on my state's department of education website with nothing more than my name.

Poorly designed and executed
February 26, 2024

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.
