It is pretty annoying -- to sign on to the IRS's system you pretty much need an existing debt to some private company (student loans [but not NELNET!], credit card, mortgage, etc). Apparently we can't have a government run identification service so we have to hack one out of random information from private companies.

SSNs are issued at birth, not at first draw of credit.
Not having a universal-nation-wide identification system only makes it worse for everyone.
