Purpose: This topic will provide instructions on how existing G5 users log in using Login.gov. This topic is intended for external users who currently have an active account in G5. In order to use Login.gov, you must have an account. If you do not have a Login.gov account, you can follow the "New Login.gov User" instructions in this tutorial. During the registration process, you must establish at least one multi-factor authentication method via an authentication app, text or phone call, or using security codes provided by Login.gov.
