ID.me: Excellent App
April 4, 2025

ID.me is a perfect way to interact with participating federal agencies. You set up your account with facial recognition and 2 factor verification, signing, and off you go to accomplishing your goal. Right now the IRS is set up on it to make filing taxes easier.

THOROUGHNESS!
April 3, 2025

My interaction with the IDme system was at first very easy, however the further in you went, you experienced it getting harder and more direct questions, and tasks, up to the point I got frustrated, then realized it was the thouroughness that was the cause.
I commend amd recommend the ID.me verification system.

Don't Trust with your information
April 3, 2025

After you sign up and upload your documents and it does you facial recording it gives you an error message and will not allow you to answer the questions, so you don't know where or whom has your documents, personal information and facial recording 🤔 this is not a trust worthy sight.

My documents were on file and yet, I still had to provide proof via a video chat. That seems like a waste of time and resources?
Once video chat was started, the agent was VERY helpful and VERY patient with me; I was VERY pleased with her professionalism, knowledge, and experience in helping others with similar problems.

Convenient Access
April 3, 2025

Well, honestly, to sign-up for ID.me requires your life's history. However, providing that your personal information continues to remain secure under the present political climate in the country, it makes accessing your information on multiple sites very easy and convenient with using your login information.

Where to start? It actually makes paying taxes online HARDER! It assumes that everyone has a computer with a working camera and a private space to work in. If credit card companies and mortgage companies and literally EVERY other agency with access to my financial data, social security number etc etc is able to verify my identity and provide secure service, why does the IRS need ID Me? And who IS this entity? Are they private? They just showed up one day and now they are the gatekeepers that overcomplicate and create an accessibility issue. Even the TSA let's you opt out of biometric identification at the airport, but you are forced to endure a dystopic labyrinth of bureaucratic baloney with ID.me

I went through all the rigmarole & jumped through all of their ridiculous hoops only to NOT be able to login to ssa.gov after my identity was supposedly successfully verified. MESS.

I waited 30 minutes in the queue, and the agent couldn't give me 30 seconds to fix a setting on my camera. She insisted that we use my phone, and then Zoom, so it's hilarious that this is a security and identification company. Neither worked, so she shunted me back into the queue despite my camera now being perfectly functional. General apathy and rushed speaking didn't do either of us any favors. Why would I believe that these people have my security in mind instead of their daily quota?
