Ended up calling an account specialist
December 14, 2025

I had entered all my information correctly, to the best of my knowledge. And at the end of the session I got a notice that said my submission was incorrect. I tried again, and got the same message, I ended up calling a very nice person to help me with the issue.

Got the information immediately.
December 14, 2025

I applied for a mortgage loan and the company needed my tax information from the IRS. Without ID me it would take about 2 weeks. With ID me, the mortgage company got the information immediately. This speeded up the process immensely.

Help yourself out!
December 14, 2025

I received an email about my yearly increase of my SSA payment. I needed to get into mySocialSecurity app to accomplish that. Signing in to ID.me would give me access to this and other government offices, including STATE sites. I'm glad that I've made it easier for my future inquiries.

I'm old school and don't like having any dialogue that's not face-to-face or at the very least, over the phone with a live person. While the AI chat was not very helpful, my problem was a little more complicated and soon after I was connected with a "live chat" person. I was pleasantly surprised that the live chat person actually read what I wrote about my main issue and directly asked how she could help by asking follow-up questions rather than having me repeat everything over again. She was astute enough to anticipate what I needed and offered a solution before I thought she had all the information. Besides providing step-by-step instructions to clear the issue, she waited while I went through the steps to clear the problem. While I never knew who helped me and could've just made my experience a miserable one, she was very thoughtful and very good at her job.

ID.Me is the best choice
December 13, 2025

I was not able to make a new account with Soc Sec because the first choice would not accept my new phone number. ID.Me accepted my phone number and verified it without any problem.

Waste of time and efgort
December 13, 2025

Tremendous waste of time and effort. Confusing, overly complex, and apparently unneeded as compared to other ID verification systems.

Private Login

ID.me provides a very secure way to log into government websites where identification must be verified. It is very secure and it was easy to set up the proof of my identity.

Complicated

Between my home computer and smart phone I got it done but it was a very long process. People without email or a smart phone will not be able to complete.

Unnecessarily difficult.
December 13, 2025

Most difficult plethora maze i have ever finally worked through. I won't take the time (1 and a half hours), and still did not get the help or information I needed. Therefore a waste of time for me.

I've tried similar sites that were terribly frustrating to get through, but not with ID.ME

My experience was pleasant.

First Time
December 13, 2025

First time setting this account up and I got confused on some questions and areas but now I understand. However I tried finishing up the saved documents for the unemployment benefits and it says "error try again later" I tried two more times later that same day and it still says the same thing with an error so now I'm going to have to call through the 800 number to help me with this problem over the phone.
