I have sent verification of my identity including my drivers license and other things. It refuses me access to my Social Security Website> Very frustrating to say the least.
After 3 or 4 days trying to set up account in order to renew my ptin the only thing I accomplished was frustration
I still don't know if my ptin was renewed. I can't get into the correct system.
Knowing that your identity is very Important, makes the timing easier to Comprehend, why processing the Situation. You have done a excellent with The system.
Went to Soc Sec office, tried calling Soc Sec. Spoke to lots of people at Soc Sec, but in the end they could not help me. ID.me quickly got me back into the system. Thank you ID.me
After the initial vetting, the set up is easy. There are different options for security logins. It took me a bit of time to set up my login preferences, but once completed everything was easy after that.
It took me two times and two agents the second time and almost an entire afternoon on the phone to get verified to be able to log on to va.gov. I gave up the first time after an unsuccessful try. The worst experience I've ever had doing something like this. Tommy
It's supposed to be a way to access Social Security, but many people who get Social Security will never be able to log in with it. I managed to painfully make my way through the process, taking literally three hours, but when I finally got my identity verified, I still couldn't log in. I got "Unexpected system error" over and over. I still haven't gotten through. It is a useless Sisyphustian act.
To prevent abuse of power and protect legitimate rights and interests.
The laws and regulations implement enacted in the past were too lax, leading some people to disregard American laws and regulations. This has resulted in the U.S. having to use national debt to supple, emt government spending.
ID.me made identity verification quick and stress-free. The process was easy to follow, secure, and efficient. I was verified without hassle, and everything worked exactly as expected. Highly recommend!
ID.me is the secure way to verify your identity online
Excellent agent and very patient and helpful
He walked me through the whole process,
Including the video call
I am now verified securely
The first site was difficult to manage because it wouldn't accept my phone number, that's why I had to use ID.me. This process turned out to be so much easier.
Yes go ahead you want this... life is so much easier when you can't get out to go yourself but you want to handle your business yourself... I still want to do stuff myself and not wait around for someone to make arrangements to come take me. Such a relief and definitely life changing
Is an amazing experience, you will learn and know the benefits this process gives us. For an easier process do it through your computer.
I've used ID.me for identity verification with government services. On the positive side, I appreciate that it provides strong security and a single login across multiple agencies — it feels like a necessary step for protecting sensitive information. The video chat option with agents gave me confidence that the process was legitimate.
That said, my personal experience hasn't been smooth. The verification steps were confusing, and I ran into repeated account lockouts that took far too long to resolve. Customer support was difficult to reach, and when I did get responses, they often felt automated rather than helpful. For someone who values operational clarity, the lack of straightforward guidance was frustrating.
Overall, ID.me does deliver on its promise of secure verification, but the user experience needs serious improvement. If you're tech-savvy and patient, you'll probably manage fine. If you expect quick support or simple navigation, be prepared for challenges.
Muy buena la atención del operador todo muy fácil
Id.me has been successful when requesting documents to verify my identity.
The documentation requested was a process to help provide my identity physically with live camera snaps, video selfie, and video talk with live agent.
Id.me is the safest identity program when government documents are requested.

I was able to set up my ID me account very easily and I am basically technically challenged. I am the generation x and so I'm not that savvy on too much technology but was able to access that my account and use it easily upload and take selfie pictures and I felt very safe using it. I would definitely recommend using it.
This whole process was time consuming and very frustrating. What do the elderly do that have no IPhones or computer skills? Considering all the hacking of accounts going on, is it really any more secure and for how long?
