Amazingly easy-to-use ID website
November 18, 2023

IRS required an online verification of my tax return and my identity in order to send me a refund from 2022 returns. I was prepared for an hour of technology torture. But no, I was really surprised. For identity verification, the ID.me website was simple, clear, quick, and appeared really secure. It was seamlessly integrated with the IRS website I started on. Every complex financial or security process should be so simple and effective. Bravo.

My phone is a cheapie. I don't take many pictures. 12 per year. I am old and my hands are shaky. I tried 6 times with my phone. Blurry pictures. Scanning does not work since the picture must be taken with a phone. On my 7th try I used my husband's Samsung S9. Put your own cellphone # in wherever it asks but before you take the picture put in the cellphone # of the better phone and take the picture. Make sure to erase the better cellphone # and put in your own cellphone after you have uploaded the pix but before you leave the screen by pushing the next button. I was using an 8.1 computer with a webcam. You can feel the webcam at the center of the top edge of your open laptop if you have never used it before. Somewhere along the line I switched from self-service to video chat with agent. If my camera only produced blurry pix of the id I didn't think I would have any luck with a selfie. What's 15 min when I had already spent 3 hrs printing IRS info. Be sure to read how to register for an IRS online account and how to verify with a Video chat agent.
After I uploaded and tapped join a video chat it took less than 5 mins. Good luck and remember persistence pays.

What's it for?
November 25, 2023

It was easy enough I'd and me needs to explain why do you need it, is it a one time verification? Do the a company websites use it? An explanation is necessary because your signing on to mutual sites at the same time.
