Social Security's ERE system that allows those representing claimants at hearings before the agency to access their clients' files is down. It has been down most if not all of today. Social Security has the ability to e-mail those who have access to the system to let them know that there's a problem but has not done so.
I emailed the ERE help desk several hours ago about this. No response. It is frustrating. Fortunately, I don't have any "5-day" issues arising today.
ReplyDeleteThere are numerous systems issues today.

ReplyDeleteThere are several major systems down agency wide. Also remember that Operations employees don’t telework anymore so people who would have worked Friday or Tuesday and could have started early mitigation Friday or yesterday of the issue instead now take those days off. According to the internal communicator key people are back in the office today and per a systems email a fix is being issued and the ticket updated.
