How to sign into the Veteran's Administration:
1 - Choose from "new VA sign in", "MyHealthyVet only", or "choose a secure sign-in partner”. [ you can't choose, you have to remember how your account is set up ]
2 - I choose "new VA" and NOW must choose from: "login.gov”, "id.me", "DS Login", "My HealthyVet” [ again, you have know which one you are supposed to use ]
3 - Through miracle of miracles, login.gov allows you to enter a username and password and doesn't require SMS for 2FA.
