from the ask-hn dept.

Recently, I needed to get some tax transcripts from the IRS for a visa verification, and realized that in order to do that, I needed to have an ID.me account.Luckily, I was able to pull one up that I had, so I tried logging in, and when I did, it said it was flagged, and gave me instructions on how to get it reinstated.
