Vendors offer discounts if you verify your ID through this service then when you go through the lengthy verification process, it will not let you apply the discount codes they offer because it flags you as a robot and not a person.

I found it easy to maneuver through the process. Having a Smart Phone helped with the camera feature to download a photo. For me the only drawback was the inability to get a paper copy. I opted to save on my hard drive and send to a family member's email who has a printer. Hopefully that will work.
I'm a senior and am not that tech savvy but this app is user friendly
I took care of my business online ID from the social security office that's excellent
Filling this out sucks don't have time after the 1/2 hr wait on phone
Every time I need to log into a government website ID.me is the website I have used for over 3 years now. I highly recommend them.
Was easy to use and set up. Give information you may have missed with not receiving mail.
After months of failed attempts to submit secondary documents, mine were finally approved. Then the whole process became clear, fast and effective. The most frustrating part came beforehand; during the attempts. I feel that, for citizens living abroad, the process could be clearer in terms of which secondary documents to submit; more examples or typical user profiles.
