The SEC is operating with a "very limited" number of staff members due to the continuing federal government shutdown.

The SEC stated it will continue the operation of certain systems, including EDGAR, and will be able to "respond to emergency situations involving market integrity and investor protection." Any updates to the SEC's operational status will be posted on www.sec.gov.

The SEC began reduced operations on December 27, 2018, and will continue until further notice.
