As I titled it, the human/Agent makes it all easy for you.
They are professional and very competent. They are very patient and will help you in any way possible.
My problem was with getting to the Human/Agent, in the first place.
There were a number of problems with trying to get all the documents to square with each other if you don't have gas or water bills.
My piece of advice would be to stick to the State Driver's License, W2s and the Health/Insurance card.
And make sure all the info on each match.
Also have a computer whose audio and video work. Or inform them that they can only contact you by phone for the Video chat. Saves a lot of time and frustration.
