EXCELLENT SERVICE
April 10, 2025

Referees are extremely prompt & patient with those not all that digitally sophisticated! Let us hope the integrity of this system survives & thrives as a "work-around" for the wanton destruction of SSA ongoing caused by DOGE. Stay tuned.

Too long process
April 10, 2025

Ridiculous experience, photos of license front and rear never worked. Selfie video did not work immediately, took 3 or 4 tries.
Waste of my time.

The process itself was smooth, quick, and easy. Every step of the process had clear, direct instructions. This made every step of the process easy to complete and a breeze to go through. Only slight complaint is that I was unable to locate a list of the necessary or POSSIBLY necessary documents for completing the process. I wanted to locate a list so that I could make sure that anything I needed or could need in order to be confirmed was in easy reach. But even after a moderate search of the site, I was unable to locate a list. So I started the process anyway, despite being a tad anxious that I wouldn't have what I needed to be confirmed. But overall, it is a very simple and easy to follow process.

Simple directions, easy forms, and quick to set up, the only thing I had an issue with is the scanning documents if you don't have a scanner or a camera on your phone then it is very difficult to get it on the file

Don't Do It
April 10, 2025

This method (by a third party) is utterly insane. There are many methods of securing identity and log-ins without giving away your biometrics. Don't do this if you can help it, and don't give away your biometrics. I am pretty sure you cannot retrieve your biometrics data completely once it is uploaded.
