Easy, secure, and fast
April 13, 2023

ID.me uses biometrics to confirm your identity now. Far easier and more secure than uploading documents and typing in forms.

Quick
April 13, 2023

The process for getting secure identification was relatively quick. Be prepared to have your face scanned using your smart phone or have to have a VIDEO chat with a staff member (I didn't know this going in) and to provide photos of a driver's license or other specified identification. All logical requirements considering the purpose of this site, but I didn't have all of the details before starting the process, so it took a little longer to complete than I expected. Once I understood everything, it did go quickly, and after completing the requirements, my ID was verified quickly.
