    Hello，

    Here are several troubleshooting steps you can try:

    First you may try accessing the site from another device or using a different web browser to rule out a browser-specific problem.

    Then:

    1.Try clearing browser cache and cookies in your browser settings and then reload the webpage. Sometimes cached data or cookies can cause issues

    1. Flush your DNS resolver cache. On Windows, this can be done via Command Prompt using the command ipconfig /flushdns. Try changing your DNS servers to public ones like Google DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) in your network settings.

    3.Confirm that your proxy settings are correct or turn off any active proxies if not needed.

    Since the site is a government website, there might be scheduled maintenance periods or occasional technical difficulties. It could also be due to temporary server downtime. Wait for some time and try accessing the site again later.

    Regards,

    Karlie
