Labeling personal and work email addresses

Labeling the email addresses on your ID.me account as personal or for work helps to seamlessly access organizations within the ID.me network. Some organizations may specifically require a work email. You may be prompted to label the email(s) on your account as personal or for work.

This article explains how to label an email as personal or for work.

To get started:

1. Go to the website of the organization you need to access, then select the ID.me button.
2. Sign in and complete multi-factor authentication (MFA), if you have MFA set up.
3. On the 'Quick Check' screen, review the email address(es) that display.
4. Next to each email, select “Personal” or “Work”, as appropriate. If you use an email for both purposes, check both boxes. If a personal or work email is missing from your account, you will be prompted to add a new email.
5. Enter the new email and select Continue. A confirmation message will be sent to this email.
   
   Tip: If you don’t receive the confirmation email, check your spam folder. You can select Resend confirmation to send another email.
6. Open the confirmation email and select the link to confirm the email address. Once confirmed, this email will display in the “Profile” tab of your ID.me account.
