Old person review.

Pass. I would not be a good reviewer. Technology is becoming too complex and is changing by the hour. A simple login with an email address and password ain't that hard...but it is!

Peace of Mind
October 4, 2023

Yes their is alot of patience for this process which has two step options: i choose the fastest which me being lazy & trying to save some time went for the picture verification:Note i had my hair color changed so it denied me! To me thats fantastic because it goes to show they dont just approve you. It forced me to then wait 30min for the video call which the gentleman was very polite & professional in every way: it was quick. Easy but yes Time Consuming! My idenity is Safe in my Perspective & they now have proof of whom the profile Really belongs. XD

ID Me Experience
October 4, 2023

ID.me was very easy to navigate. Be sure to have web cam or cell phone that can take pictures. Also, I used my cell phone to take a picture of my IL drivers license, to prove my identity, and it was very easy to do with the prompts on ID.me. Customer Service will have a wait time for questions, but I find searching questions on irs.gov is really helpful. You can basically find most questions to be answered in publications or forms.

If your phone setting is blocked to outside users for your camera, you need to figure out how to unblock it, before you even start down this path. Google chrome browser also needs to have the camera unblocked. Both of these were settings that I had to figure out how to do. Of course, not all phones have the same app information, so you have to figure out the correct heading for how to access and unblock it. It was a long and frustrating process, based on my learning curve of technology. And because it took me so many tries to figure it out, I have no idea what I did to finally accomplish it.
It was super satisfying though to get that final email that told me I had ID.me set-up. Security is a big deal in today's world.

In short had to visit two stores before someone made it clear why I wasn't receiving verification.It should not seem like some sort of secret when a veteran needs to update their information.

Left speechless
October 4, 2023

Honestly was dreeding the verification because it was the first time that I needed to go through a video call to confirm my ID. But, was left speechless of how professional, secure, straight to the point and willingness to assist was present during the whole time. Loved the experience and props to the agent who attended the call!
