Veterans must verify their identity for their Login.gov account before they can use this account to sign in and manage their VA benefits and health care online. This helps protect all Veterans’ identities and prevent scammers from stealing Veteran benefits. This video will guide you through the steps needed to verify your identity for their Login.gov account and where to get more help if needed.
Here’s what you’ll need to verify your identity for your Login.gov account:
Your Login.gov username (your email address) and password, and
Your current, valid driver’s license or other state-issued ID, and
Your Social Security number
Here’s what you’ll also need to complete the process online:
A U.S. phone number, and
A smartphone with a camera or a computer where you’ve saved images of your ID, and
Access to the method you set up for MFA, like your mobile or landline phone, authentication app, security key, or backup codes
Note: If you don’t have a U.S. phone number, Login.gov may be able to send a letter to your mailing address instead. If you don’t have a smartphone with a camera or a computer with images of your ID, you can choose to verify your identity in person at a participating U.S. post office near you.
