Hello Kevin. We’re glad you were able to complete your verification successfully. We appreciate your feedback! -T, ID.me
The ID Me representative made the process seem easy, she did it fast & professional! Thank you!
Doesn't take long at all to verify. She let us take our time because I had to explain querstions to my mom before she could answer them. Perfect
It took a lot for me to find some of the documents. Also, matching my current picture to 5 years ago.
Hello Clinton. We’re glad you were able to complete your verification successfully. We appreciate your feedback! -T, ID.me
I'm Mr. Invisible because the country doesn't accept me as a veteran when I served six years in the guard and 6 months active duty while training as a US Army soldier during boot and AIT camps. I have nothing to show for those six years. Nothing but being spit upon for serving in the NG.

My experience was very helpful. My agent was very professional and easy to understand every step I needed to identify myself.
It was very easy way to get the information I needed,thanks
The initial process of signing up may be a bit long but, it is well worth it when you need to sign into or interact with multiple federal agency websites. They should use this for Dept of Motor Vehicles in each state, it would be so much easier...for voting in elections too!
Good, the agent was friendly and she was helpful I was confused she was able too help me
First of all the selfie could not be completed. Software couldn't decide if I was too close or too far away. Secondly, while the video ID verification was simple, I received the survey but not the continuation email that would allow me to access forms and apply for program, therefore making this whole process a waste of time
