ID.me delays leave Carolinians without unemployment money for weeks
Verified delays: Unemployment process stalls benefits By David Hodges and Emery Eisner | May 3, 2021 at 6:24 PM EDT - Updated May 3 at 6:29 PM
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) - It’s been almost two months since Debra Voss received any unemployment benefits.
Voss lost her job just before the beginning of the pandemic and successfully applied for unemployment in early March of 2020. But a year later Voss received an email from the North Carolina Division of Employment Security telling her to sign up for ID.me, an identity verification site. Once she did, she hit roadblocks within the site and stopped receiving her benefits.
