Update 10:36 am EST — This has been resolved

Update 10:25 am EST —  We have found the issue in the code stream and are currently working to update it.  An alternative solution that works the majority of the time is to click the Back arrow button of the browser to take you back to the page you were on before and then click continue as normal.  We are seeing this work for most of the returns.

————————————————

We have received several calls about an Unexpected Server Error in Healthcare and E-file.  We are currently investigating this.

Rather than clicking log back in button, close the browser, and open a new instance of the browser, log back in.  This will route you to a different server.
