4 weeks, no money from EDD claim. All bills unpaid. What can I do?

I found a way to solve unemployment claim delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WH8o5VYCTqM

I feel you, OP. I was in the same boat a few months ago. It took almost 6 weeks for my claim to go through. The system is so backed up right now, its ridiculous. Have you tried calling them? That's what finally worked for me.

4 weeks is actually not that bad compared to some stories I've heard. Some people have been waiting for months! The system is completely overwhelmed. Have you checked your online account for any updates or messages?

I found a method to get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

Here's what I've learned from my experience and research: • First, make sure all your information is correct in your online account. Any small error can cause delays. • If you haven't already, upload any additional documents they might need (ID verification, proof of income, etc.) • Keep a log of all your attempts to contact them. This can be useful if you need to escalate your case. • Consider reaching out to your local state representative. They sometimes can help push claims through. • If you're in dire financial straits, look into local food banks and assistance programs. They might be able to help while you wait. • Finally, don't give up. It's a frustrating process, but persistence usually pays off eventually. Hang in there, OP. I know it's tough, but you're not alone in this struggle.

have u tried faxing ur docs? I no it sounds old school but I heard it can speed things up sometimes 🤷‍♂️

This whole system is a joke. They expect us to survive for weeks or months with no income? And then they wonder why people are angry and frustrated. Something needs to change.
