Redundant... Like I mentioned before I was unaware that I was going to have to use another service other than the IRS to file my taxes it's a very inconvenient process when you have to file your taxes and deal with the second or third party

The entire process seems very complicated and cumbersome at first with all the instructions and having to go to your email to verify that with a code and then your phone with a code and then take a selfie that makes you look cartoonish then the screen flashes all sort of colors but completing the process and getting the identity verified message is a sigh of relief. Ive had to do this twice and the first time was like living in hell so im glad the second ordeal went a lot smoother. Its understandable that its important to verify that someone is who they say they are but your software has to work well too or people will just give up and go a different route.

Safe, easy, quick, efficient
February 11, 2025

I was trying to get all my tax documents ready to proceed with following this year when I realized I could not find a copy of last year's tax return. Due to having to change to a new tax preparer, due to unfortunate health events that happened to my previous preparer, I was unsure if I would be able to get copies in time to file so I looked online to see how else I could get a copy. I saw that you could get them through ID.me and I had used this platform before to get a copy of a social security card. Log in is easy. Proving your identity is easy and makes you feel not just anyone can get your information. I got my returns and was able to print them out in under 10 minutes. It was a lifesaver knowing I wouldn't have to struggle and put off tax returns and so very simple to do.

Having a single ID.me account makes it much easier to access services on the IRS and Social Security websites. I no longer have to remember several usernames and passwords. The experience of registration for an ID.me account and the interaction with an ID.me agent via a video call was seamless and pleasant. I have encouraged my family members to use ID.me as well.

When government works well
February 11, 2025

We beat government actions when they (often) don't work well. ID.me is government working well. This change saved me time getting on board. The links went where they were supposed to go. In short, this system works and is efficient.

Worst experience
February 11, 2025

The agent was excellent the best
The whole id.me experience is crap- hard to use
Absolutely the worst bunch of unnecessary nonsense to go through.
I should just come over the border and everything would be easier
Not everyone lives on the smart phone
Even when i clicked i don't have smart phone id.me still texting me links that i cannot click on my flip phone
