After jumping through many, many hoops to get my credentials to match what is currently on file at CAF, I can finally try out the new realtime method approving POAs as soon as my clients log in and sign. I made it through all 5 steps until clicking submit, when I was greeted with this message:
System Error
Sorry, there is a problem with the system. To submit your request, please try again later.
Just wondering if anyone else has encountered this, and how long the "problem" has existed. Today is the first day I've even been able to get past Step 1 of entering my own credentials, so for all I know this error message is weeks old.
In case anyone is wondering, the POAs I uploaded using the other online submission method in the first week of January have still not hit the system. The woman on the practitioner hotline today could not even offer an estimate of when they would be processed. As for the old old-fashioned way, I obtained all signatures via docusign, and traditional fax method still only permits a wet ink signature. Le sigh.
