ID Experience
November 13, 2023

Nothing I state here will make any difference. Just so you you might stop and think... I started programming in 1977. I'm an engineer (electrical) and have been a software 30 years. I learned many years back to design software with a convention (same look and feel) so it will be intuitive. Further ALWAYS test your work using subjects that are unfamiliar with your interface to get understanding from a user's point of view. This will always benefit the developer with the functional aspects of the software.

Unresolved
November 13, 2023

I had to go online and upload a picture of license and do a video call and when I sign in is still says there was a fraudulent filing of my tax return which I don't believe true. I'm now I have to call in to try to get this resolved to proceed with my taxes which will take more time.

I had fun doing it. At first it was hard for me because I was not sure which box should I check to continue doing it right. Until finally I did it right. Thanks!

Safe and secure process!
November 6, 2023

The protocols were rigorous, safe and secure but not unduly so. I felt very comfortable that my information was still confidential and the process only took about 10 minutes. Very well thought out.
