I went through this earlier this week, to pay estimated taxes. Fortunately the automated process worked for me, so I didn't have to go through the writer's additional verification. It was a bit tedious, but not a difficult process, all performed on my Mac laptop. The only thing I didn't like was having to download their authenticator app...and I'm still not sure if it was required, of if I could have used the Google authenticator I have for my other 2FA tokens. Of course, the level of difficulty here is that you have to have your ID documents scanned or in a scannable form, that you have to do a video selfie, etc. My wife, for example, has the hardware and software needed to do this, but not the flexibility and patience I've gained from a few decades of digital frustration to actually use all her tools to see this process through.
