Eh
May 12, 2023

It worked. Kind of involved. Kind of creepy. And they want me to enter at least 50 characters, so here they are.

ID.ME for the IRS steps you through the process to verify your identity. After uploading the back & front of state ID or driver's license, you then take a real-time video that matches with your ID. Next it matches your name with credit report. It seemed very secure and hacker proof.

Wasn't sure what I was doing, or even how it all actually happened but the inventors took it into account that we might stumble around and eventually find our way through it
