need help please with trying to do the ssa

[Dznypal]

Im trying to get my DH ssa with the gov login --I did mine a while ago but I dont remember having to take a selfie among things
his SSA 1099 is the only thing we need to get our taxes done

Im up to the verify ID area and thats were Im stuck
there now asking for a selfie
how do I even do that--I mean I know how to do a selfie but how do i get it to finish his account
Like I said I dont remeber having to do any of this

I looked backed over our papers from last year to see what we sent in-
it looks like he printed his from the SSA website
I got mine in the mail quite some time ago
Id really appreciated it someone could walk me through this in easier to follow words

or does anyone know if there still mailing them out--strange thing I got mine but where is his
I dont think we ever said hed go paperless

It does sound like you are not paperless and he is, no idea how that happened. However, yes to create an account for login.gov you have to send in a selfie. Once you get to that part, they will ask for your mobile phone number. Then they send a link to your phone and you follow the directions from there to take a live selfie (meaning you actually take it, you can’t pick a picture from your camera roll). Once you’ve submitted your selfie, you go back to your computer to complete the rest of the application there.

Good luck
