Technical Issue with BreEze Online System
6/28/2024
On June 26th, the BreEZe online system experienced a technical issue that prevented some online payments from being fully processed. Impacted applicants and licensees who made BreEZe online payments for initial license applications or license renewal applications on June 26th and June 27th were able to make a payment and obtain the receipt, but the BreEZe system was unable to apply the payment to the application. Impacted applications cannot be approved until the issue has been resolved in BreEZe. The Department of Consumer Affairs is currently working on resolving the issue and the BreEZe system will be unavailable Saturday, June 29th.
If you are a licensee and submitted your renewal application during this time period and your renewal application has not been approved, and if there are no other renewal deficiencies, your renewal application will be approved once the issue is resolved. Applicants and licensees impacted by this issue do not need to take any further action.
