This is a caution to those who are photosensitive due to a medical condition. The "selfie" required to sign up with ID.me is not a normal photo. The picture process involves red and green flashing lights. There was no warning in the information and it caused me to have an episode. Please proceed with caution.

Blocked access to my own info
November 8, 2023

It was highly frustrating to try to log in to the IRS site and find out that the login that used to work had been replaced with ID.me. It was clunky and slow, and could not complete my verification, so I had to sign up for an appointment. Because it was late in the evening and there were long wait times, I had to wait until the next day. Prepare to be very frustrated.
