Reluctant senior
April 17, 2023

I am totally lacking in computer skills. This program did all the work and made the reading simple for me. I highly recommend this. I was apprehensive but it really was quick and easy.

Super easy!
April 17, 2023

I needed to provide income verification and was sent the link to ID.me for IRS records. It took less than 5 minutes, they give clear instructions on how to best send the information they need, and I got exactly what I needed too!

After struggling with everything from applying for credit to getting my tax refunds, all my identification issues were resolved when I finished ID.me. It was super easy and I would recommend this site to everyone who has ever been denied because of lack of information or nonexistent information..

My experience with ID.me was great. I was thinking that the process would take so much time but it was fast and simple. I would recommend to people to use it. For me it was easier than making a phone call and talking to someone.

Timing Is Everything
May 16, 2023

Do it when no one else is, like Sunday afternoon. Make certain that your internet connection is clean and uncluttered; and, that your Smart Phone is using your personal internet gateway and NOT the phone carrier's cell phone towers whch may be cluttered with lots of other users...
