Use the video chat method
October 13, 2023

I couldn't verify my identity with id.me for over a year. Then I finally got the option for a video chat and it worked perfectly.
So if you're having problems use the live agents on video chat. It took only a couple of minutes and Finally I got verified.

ID Experience
October 13, 2023

Sometimes you don't know if the site you are logging onto is easy to use especially for those who are not computer literate. Even though I am very experienced in using a computer, for those who do not have that experience, the ID experience is a site for anyone to use.

Not fast but easy.
October 13, 2023

I hesitated at first but once I got into, it went smoothly. Now I only have to remember one password for government websites. Also. I feel more secure with two step authorization. Just grab your I.D. and smart phone and get started.

Logging into ID.me with Firefox
October 13, 2023

Kept getting errors logging into ID.me. Help personnel walked me through how to do this. I should have used Chrome instead of Firefox, then I wouldn't have the problems.

Using ID.me to verify my identity in order to access sensitive information worked well. The process was secure, yet simple to use. The layers of security and ease of walking through the process of verification made my experience with ID.me a great one.
