Please note, the Enrollment Center will also be closed on Christmas Eve.
DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL”
Rescheduled for the first weekend after New Years hoping it’ll be good by then. Classic.
In prior periods of a “federal government shutdown”, at least some of the enrollment centers were open and doing the enrollment/renewal interviews during the shutdown. For example, the Reagan building in DC was open for them and easy for appointments because the city was devoid of a lot of routine traffic. NYC wouldn’t work in the same way as DC.
