IRS Facial Recognition: Everything you need to know

Beginning this summer, the IRS will compel taxpayers who access and complete their procedures online to sign up for and verify their identification using a mobile platform that relies on a third party (business).

To begin the new log-in procedure, users must send a government ID, a copy of a utility bill, and a selfie to ID.me, a Virginia-based identity verification company.

In a statement, its Commissioner Charles Rettig stated, “Identity verification is vital to protect taxpayers and their information.” “The company has been hard at work to improve this area, and this new verification method is intended to make IRS online applications as secure as possible for customers.”
