you're naive to think they don't already have it all. there is so much sharing of data going on now that the DL and Passport data for sure is accessible to ALL gov agencies if they want it. The only good thing is 3/4 of the gov is still shut down or working from home because of covid, which makes them inefficient.
I'm not naive. And I'm not saying they don't have all this info. What I'm saying is why give them and a third party more? This is the kind of thinking that frustrates the heck out of me - it's right up there with "I don't have anything to hide, so it doesn't matter to me if they intrude on every aspect of my life."
how can you give them "more" if they already have it? I understand your thinking, but I think that train has left the station a few years ago.
The train has definitely left the station - and now we're going to give it another track by putting more information into the hands of ID.me and their their partners.
And if the IRS has all this information, why is it necessary to have a third party manage our online access to our tax information? It isn't.
