The problem is with the payments section I think.
We were just told the same issue still exists by the lawyers.
Did your lawyer tell you if they get the option to retry the payment, on the website after this error?
We are not sure what options are available to them. Our lawyer submitted the applications on our behalf, and we do not have the credentials to check.
Why does this matter? Does it work after you retry?
Same issue for my partner’s application…can not connect to remote server for DUC payment…was told this about 2weeks ago…
Any update on this? Was anyone able to make a payment?
Not us! Sending a follow up email to check with our lawyers today

Any luck for any one yet on this issue with “Unable to Connect to Remote Server”
I have the login and tried to generate the DUC many times.
My lawyer has said that there is no option but wait.
I’ve emailed the “geral” mailbox for AIMA but no response yet
This is exactly what we’ve been hearing from our lawyers as well. It looks like AIMA is updating the fees for some services, which is causing the delay. Let’s hope the website gets fixed soon 
It’s funny (sarcastically speaking) that when the government really wants to operate efficiently and cooperatively, they can do so. There was very good cooperation among AIMA, government, IT staff when the end result is ensuring higher fees for ARI applications. They can publish the Portaria to update fees in record time, all the while we are still waiting for the portaria from last year regarding time waiting. Well done, well done. 
It is taking very long to “update” those fees.
This seems to be happening again. Have folks gotten past this here?
The issue still seems to exist. It’s been like this for a long time now. I don’t think anybody was able to submit from early Feb…
Wow. Has anyone tried suing AIMA with the application and does that do anything at all?
I was told the portal is working now.

Yes, I received the deposit code. But we have to pay much more than before.
