LANSING, MI –
Secretary of state branches across Michigan are extending their hours through Monday after a computer system problem interrupted transactions over the past several days.
State officials say it will take time to address the backlog created by the outage, which suspended operations for parts of this past Monday and Wednesday and nearly all of Thursday.
As a result, branch offices will stay open later on Friday, Saturday and Monday.
The secretary of state's office also says late fees will be waived for affected customers coming into branches through the end of business on May 27.
The office has alerted law enforcement that some customers were unable to renew their vehicle tabs or driver's licenses during the computer outage.
