What is the first step in filing records electronically in the ERE System?
In order to use the ERE system, you must first have a copy of your electronic disk from Social Security and the bar code for your file from ODAR. To order the bar code and electronic disk, one can fax his or her local ODAR a request for either, or, or both. Make sure to include the claimant’s name and social security number on the request.
