When establishing your account, make sure you have all credentials, read all instructions thoroughly, and have your available back-up contacts. Reaching out to the help desk may take a while but don't give up.

Frustrating service
December 14, 2023

I had an account, then I was directed to verify my self. I went thru the entire process 4 times, each time being told that I was verified and the next screen started the process over. For a government agency, very difficult to use.

Better than Login.gov
December 7, 2023

When setting up mySSA account to apply for Medicare, I first created an account with Login.gov, but once I set it up and logged in, I was denied access to my Social Security record. I phoned Social Security and was advised to use ID.me instead of Login.gov, so I created an ID.me account. Once I log in through ID.me, I have full access to my Social Security record to view my Medicare application status.
