I get to the screen "Identity confirmation", received a verification code by email, submitted it and comes back verified, however the red box to "Continue" stays red and I can't continue.

Ohio BMV online not working???

Trying for 2 days to schedule my son’s drivers test through Ohio BMV. Have had a working OHID for several years…am literally logged in with my name in the upper right corner yet cannot proceed with scheduling the test because it “doesn’t recognize me.” Gives me a number to call…but when I do it tells me to go to Ohio BMV online. This is a nightmarish loop! Ugh.

OhID

First off the Ohid is a pain in the a$$, I’ve had the same username and password for a couple years. Today it will not let me in. Says my username or password doesn’t match and only options are to change the password and I tried and it still won’t work

Login does not work

Been 2 days now, Trying to check the status of my education license, but can't get it to log me in on several different devices. Does not give an error for my username and password (I have them written down anyway). It just circles me back to login page after loading. Even reset my password just fine, used that password and it did the same. No error, just circle back to login.

OH|ID Login not working

Needed to create an ID to access OH Gov sites. Created the ID and password. Not able to sign in. Have changed PW 3 times. Tried 2 different computers and three different browsers. Get "We didn't recognize the username or password you entered"
But yet can request change password and get new code to allow me to change password.

OH|ID Login not working

Same as JWilde for me. Have been having this issue for weeks - created account, can confirm user name and change password but the system never recognizes new PW. They are saying the ONLY way to get help for this is to email profile.help@education.ohio.gov, which I have done 5 days ago with no response. I have spoken to multiple customer service agents, none are able to help me.

It lets you create an account, but as soon as you provide a password it says it doesn't recognize the account and you can't log in.

ODJFS Blows

The Ohio Department of Jobs and Family Services needs to hire more phone reps. Spending hours on the phone waiting to talk with someone is BS.

OH ID in use already

For anyone getting the OH ID issue you will need to call and reverify your identity. Submit picture of ID, SS card and Bank statement. Reason being is there was a backdoor attempt in hijacking peoples accounts through OH ID and caused peoples accounts to be locked out. The problem will not fix itself! so get ahold of someone asap. Hope this helps

Fixed OH ID

**UPDATE**
I called and was on hold for 6 hours. Finally someone answered and was told my OH ID was not linked properly. Not sure why, but they fixed it and filed my week for me. Hopefully this helps someone else ! Good luck y’all.

Definitely would be nice if they would publicly address this somehow so we know someone knows there's a problem and they're doing something about it.

Login not working

Tried to login yesterday to file my weekly claim and it tells me OH ID already connected to an unemployment account. Still saying this, haven't been able to file my claim. Call in and can't even get on hold because it says high call volume call back later and hangs up. Online chat is busy and no one has answered my inquiry online. Not sure what else to do at this point.

This OH¦ID is already in use for another unemployment account.

I've been dealing with this since Wednesday. I've been on hold for over 2 hours so far, just so I can file my claim. There is no way I can do this every Monday. They had scheduled maintenance Saturday that I was hoping would fix the issue with the log in, but sadly no.

Dear unemployment, please have a damn heart and let us know something about our pay!

Why hasn't anyone from the unemployment agency spoke on this issue? At least have some common courtesy and send out a mass email to ease our minds!!! Like hey the website is clearly having issues but dont worry it wont effect your payments!!! Man, I know they dont have to worry about their paychecks and probably DONT care that some of us are relying on the government for our pay this week, but for God sakes, if they can put a automated recording to tell us we cant report fraud , or even talk to a person , to call back then they should be able to but a automated recording letting us know that its their error and they are working on fixing it but its wont effect your pay this week

Wonder if they plan to fix this issue?

Same problem, started yesterday. Weeks previous were fine. Been on hold with unemployment for over an hour now. Hopefully if they answer, they can help.

OHID complete failure!!!!

The unemployment website is complete garbage. The phone system is absolute crap also. You can wait on hold for three hours listening to the same repeated message of how easy it is to sign in online except you can't sign in online that's why you're calling. The difficulty And complications related to these systems seem to be deliberate. I've never seen any other site with this level of failure. We are paying for this Terrible service. Like soon maybe
