Setting and using ID.me
February 19, 2025

The process of setting up and using ID.me was relatively easy. The process took about twenty minutes to set it up using my iPhone to upload photos of driver's license and a photo of myself. Also text messages moved the process along. Once setup was completed it was easy to use ID.me to access the IRS.gov to start my tax return. I'll be using it to access my state tax return also.

ID logon and verification process!
February 19, 2025

I'm 76 a not trained on computer type issues!
I found the ID me login in process extremely difficult and frustrating!
I haven't even tried using it yet!
I certainly hope it is more user friendly than my experience thus far!

Wrong ID (it wasn't.me)
February 19, 2025

I am giving 1 star only because giving 0 stars is not an option. I went through ALL the hoops to setup my account in order to access the IRS website services. ID.me account setup was cumbersome, but not impossible. With all of the documents and information that was required, I felt secure about the process. Then, when I went back to the IRS's website to retrieve my sensitive tax information, the IRS gave me someone else's tax documents. I looked at the top of the page and noticed the logged in User is NOT ME. I click on the profile. It has my email (that I used to setup my ID.me account) and my phone number. But the name and address are not mine. The tax information I have access to on the IRS's website is not my tax information. If I can see someone else's information, who can see mine?

Fraudulent Use of My Information
February 19, 2025

Hello,
A family member has used my social security number, DOB to open a ID.me account in their name. As a result I am unable to sign into ID.me to apply for unemployment benefits. I want to report that this account is fraudulent but I don't know who to contact in your company to report this.
