Zero stars

Awful, 2 hours of calls, zooms, texts, chats rooms, 2 agents all to get me verified. The codes never worked!

ID.ME

I would highly recommend using ID.ME. I was a victim of a fraudulent unemployment claim. Thankfully with their help, I was able to reclaim my identity.

Nice, strong and secure
April 14, 2023

Nice, strong and secure because it provides security apart from a series of access and the way to test the validation of the information.

My opinion - too difficult
May 14, 2023

Older people (I'm 75) are not as computer savvy as younger people. Not everyone is able to take photos, place them in a folder, retrieve them and send them to others. Some people do not know how to take video selfies and send them to other people. Some people do not know about preparing taxes or even know how to read tax returns. All very confusing.
Please IRS make it simpler...

CONFUCIUS
May 14, 2023

We wondered if it was a Scam to somehow get the Refund from People, so I waited a while and talked to Friends and Family.Most of them said don't do it. So I checked on IRS on Line and it left me with a better feeling, and went ahead with it. The Security was good, but the rest could be a bit improved. So now can't wait to see how long it takes the money to hit my Bank. But it could confuse older People...
