ID.me Signing Up
March 26, 2023

For Veterans, I chose this Service that was "As advertised." I choose to have my new ID.me credentials verified with my past history of banking & resident information. After a few quick text messages, the process was off and running. To say this took 5 min's, this was closer to 3 - 4 min's of my time. Now I can easily get to all the great e-Benifits offered on-line & apply instantly. Thank you. Steve M

Smartphone video selfie failed. Eventually succeeded with webcam. I am somewhat uncomfortable with providing all this biometric data. I would not recommend ID.me to others who don't absolutely need to use it.

Safe and Simple
March 26, 2023

The few multiple choice questions asked were pertinent. Social security numbers were blacked out, making it very safe to use. It took a total of about two minutes to apply, and acceptance came back within a few minutes. Would have no qualms about using.

I liked the video and driver's license ideas to verify identity and that the 2 had to match. I did worry about whether or not this was a legitimate company connected with the IRS until I was finally able to see my tax transcripts from 2020.

Selfie video
March 26, 2023

Once the video starts try not to laugh, because the video can't recognize you and you'll have to do a video chat with an agent

I thought creating an account with the IRS would be cumbersome and difficult. I was surprised by how simple yet how thorough the process was.
