Getting the most from the portal
The portal is the fastest way to communicate with MERP about your case. You can securely submit information, receive updates, and track your case from one place without mailing documents or waiting on the phone.
Tips for using the portal
- Respond as soon as possible to requests for information or documents.
- Keep copies of anything you upload for your records.
- Review your case status periodically for updates or new requests.
- Read all messages carefully and respond by any stated deadlines.
- Update your contact information if your mailing address, email, or phone number changes.
Need additional assistance?
If you're unsure what information is being requested or cannot locate a document, contact MERP before your response deadline. Staff can explain what is needed and discuss available options.
