Title
How do I verify my identity online without a Premium account?
Answer
We’ll help you verify your identity using Login.gov or ID.me.
Here’s what you’ll need to verify your identity with Login.gov:
-
Your driver’s license or non-driver’s license state-issued ID, and
-
Your Social Security number, and
-
A phone number on a phone plan that’s in your name
Here’s what you’ll need to verify your identity with ID.me:
- A smartphone (or a landline or mobile phone and a computer with an internet connection), and
- Your Social Security number, and
- Proof of your identity. You can use your driver’s license or passport as proof. Or, you can answer questions based on private and public data (like your credit report) to prove you’re you.
If you need support from Login.gov or ID.me, go the account service’s website.
