ID Me - Not so Bad
December 3, 2022

My previous IRS account was retired.: (
I dreaded doing ID Me because of the multi flashing pictures collecting biometrics on my cell phone. However I found out there was analternative. I could show ID and have my identity confirmed by an online IRS representative. Worked through Zoom. The process was quick and easy once my ID documents were uploaded.

I was very skeptical to supply my social security number for verification of my nursing license. They should find another way to verify your license number and status.

Based on the instructions I received to enroll in ID.me to access the IRS.gov website, the process sounded difficult, time-consuming, and, not least, stressful. However, once I had gathered and submitted the ID documents required, which everyone should have on hand anyway, I was connected via teleconference with the ID.me representative, who guided me through the process, which turned out to be simple, straightforward, and quick to complete.

Great Experience
December 3, 2022

Painless, direct and professional. My interaction with Danna was seamless, quick, direct and very relaxed.

Danna was excellent in her interactions with me and I was amazed that it was so rapid from start to finish.

Our first connection I lost my camera view and she promptly sent another link and I was able to get camera to work.

I appreciated her professionalism in dealing with that snafu quickly and efficiently.

Danna is a valuable asset to your organization.

I felt safe giving them information
December 3, 2022

While it was frustrating at times, I know that it was because of my poor connection to the internet and I kept entering things wrong. I felt safe giving them the personal information they asked for and will be able to help my mother get an account. The woman who video verified my information was very approachable, friendly, knowledgeable, and patient. She went above and beyond and I appreciate it.
