"You cannot use myGovID to access myGov at this time".

[#1]

Hi

The myGovID app on my phone is telling me "You cannot use myGovID to access myGov at this time". The same message was there yesterday.

Is there any news on when the myGovID app will all access to myGov?

Thanks.

Are you still having this issue? It doesn't look like there's any maintenance happening see here https://www.mygovid.gov.au/need-help

Yes, just checked at 5.40 am, Monday, 29 June 2020, the myGovID mobile app is still saying "You cannot use myGovID to access myGov at this time"

Thanks for reaching out.

We suggest that you delete and redownload the app.

Update at 3.30 pm today, 29 June 2020:

Issue resolved. When the app says "You cannot use MyGovID to access myGov at this time" it really means you need to re-establish your id with your email, password and original identity documents.

hi i am having the same issue, when you say re-issue your email etc what exactly did you do to reset it?

Hi

If you get the message "You cannot use myGovID to access myGov at this time" you need to reinstall the myGovID app and also restablish your identity with the same documents (passport, license etc) as you used when first setting up the myGovID app. Basically start from the beginning of the process. Hope that helps.
