It works but it is not easy
October 12, 2023

It took me quite a while to get through but I stuck with it and I finally got it done so I guess it's worthwhile in the end

Smooth but opaque
September 12, 2023

The process was fairly simple but asked for personal information without much explanation of where and how it would be verified. It assumed the availability of a smart phone to complete the steps. This process is required for continued access to a federal funding site I need for my work, so it's not like I really had a "choice" whether or not to use this service. I am relying on the decision of the federal agencies to use this company that they are confident my information will be secure.

Fairly straight forward
September 12, 2023

The process is fairly straightforward, and relatively fast. The only issue that needs addressing is making how the the process of the app photographing the ID works, and that's easily fixed with a line or two of copy.

Very good.
September 12, 2023

Very efficient experience. But if I can choose more than one way to check in such as phone number and app, that will be better.

All around Fast, simple & secure.
September 11, 2023

Agent immediately started with verifying my account. He was extremely helpful with understanding my situation and displayed active listening. He was also very good looking and well spoken.
I give him 10-10
Only issue I had was the wait for the verification video call kept timing out when my screen would shut into screen savor. So that should change.

Id me experience
September 11, 2023

I am very skeptical,when I need Identity Protection PIN, to file my tax returns electronically. So my accountant could not file my returns,without this PIN. I thought this process of ID Me to have an IRS account and PIN takes days and snail mail!. But the entire process including uploding Identification documents,and establising with video scanner to avoid robo accounts is phenomenal. It took less than 20 min to accomlish the task of id me and get my ID PROTECTION PIN.
