Can I verify my identity in person for my Login.gov account?

Yes. You can verify your identity in person for your Login.gov account.

Login.gov offers in-person identity verification at participating United States Postal Service (USPS) locations. You can choose this option from the start. Or, you may also have the option to verify your identity in person if you tried to verify online but couldn’t upload a photo of your ID.

When you go to the post office, be sure to tell the staff member that you received an email telling you to get your barcode scanned at this location to verify your identity. If the staff member doesn’t know how to proceed, ask for a supervisor to help you.
