Crowdstrike Strikes the Social Security Administration

Just an FYI - folks! If you were planning on heading to your local Social Security Administration ("SSA") office or calling your local SSA office today to check the status of your application or appeal, wait until next week. The global Microsoft and Crowdstrike outage problems that were responsible for canceling  numerous flights and elective surgeries have also caused SSA to close today. SSA claimed that while their offices were closed, you could still call in and get your questions answered, but I am finding it impossible to get through any of their phone lines. Let's hope this one-day outage doesn't lead SSA to fall further behind in processing claims.
