Problem with Website
Anyone else having a problem certifying for benefits today. Every time I try and go to the page to insert my wages it crashes.
This is how you can certify with the website being fucked up - Thank God for the refresh button. This works for more than just me, it's worked for multiple people I've talked to, so give it a try and I'm sure you'll be able to get through! Eventually (in about 5-15 min)
Edit: Thanks for the awards guys! I'm so glad this is helping all of you! Have a great night, and enjoy your week!
