The name has changed – but not how you use it.
The change is occurring over a phased rollout. You may see both myID and myGovID when using your app to log in to participating government online services, such as Online services for agents. This won’t affect your access and your Digital ID will remain fully functional and secure during this time.
You’ll still have:
- your same login details and identity strength
- continued use – the existing app will automatically update, or you can manually update it from the App Store or Google Play once available
- the same authorisations in RAM
- secure access to a range of government online services
- the change to myID aims to reduce the confusion between myGovID and myGov.
Remember, there’s no need to set up a new myID or reconfirm your details. If you’ve been asked to do this in a message, email or by visiting a website, it’s a scam.
