Could not get past the photograph of my drivers license - although it was clear and all the information was legible - I was persistently asked to take another photograph - in the end I gave up after countless attempts!
I've been trying to get verified for a week now and the documents was up and down it wasn't the right ones they were blurry it was a little mess all the way through the week but when I got through the lady was real nice she's very experienced and she walked me through the process and we got through it very well thank you so much.
Took me twice as long to login, especially since I already had a login for irs.gov!
El agente muy amable, habló en mi idioma y me
Ayudó porque mi audio no querí funcionar muy bien y fue paciente
I'm 85 years old and not a pro smartphone user and it took me longer than it should have. They had to use the ultimate solution, ZOOM, to deal with me. The IRS has hinted at setting up a new account for some time, but little did I know. The young techies will love the pocess.
My information was easy to upload. Precise questions that ensures my protection against fraudulent activities. I really hope this helps reduce fraud on a whole
