Technical nightmare!
June 17, 2023

After trying unsuccessfully a couple of months ago, I tried again today to gain access through ID.ME to my IRS account. After 1 1/2 hours of struggle today, I finally was successful. I'm on my computer and phone all day, and this was one of the worst processes I have experienced.

ID.Me enrollment
June 17, 2023

The process was very easy, the staff was very professional and helpful. The wait time for video verification was short. I had an issue with my microphone so they called my phone and connected me to a zoom session.

I went on to update my account, as well as get my AGI. I'd just been through a 4 month hacking issue and I lost access to everything. I was able to get through it and felt secure.

Unnecessarily complicated
June 17, 2023

This process made me extremely anxious. It took several tries for my phone to take a photo of my driver's license that was considered acceptable by the system. It took several tries for the facial scanning process to be acceptable. When I tried to call on the telephone number that was given, no one answered.
