So much better than before UPGRADE
October 11, 2023

I can't tell you how smooth and fast my experience this time with ID.me was. I went from being someone who hated this and now can gladly and joyfully say my experience this time was like watching a sunrise and set. To login to govt approved programs to my ssi was smoothed. Great job. Thank you for your service.

Sometimes confusing, but it works
October 11, 2023

ID.me makes an effort to allow access to US government services by securely identifying US citizens online. It took me 2 days to figure it out, but when I finally did so, it worked well. The interviewing agent was professional, courteous, and competent.

This is horrific! The US government is now forcing you to use biometrics just to file your taxes! This should be outlawed and banned forever. The entire experience feels like you're being violated. This should be stopped immediately.
