I've been dealing with this for MONTHS. It's a nightmare. I swear they make it difficult on purpose to discourage people from claiming benefits. Hang in there, OP. 💪
Pro tip: If you can, try faxing your documents instead of mailing them. Sounds old school, but I swear it got my claim moving faster.
Has anyone tried contacting their local representative about these delays? I've heard it can sometimes speed things up.
have you tried checking your online account? sometimes it updates there before they send any official notice

I feel your pain, OP. I'm in the same boat. Filed my SDI claim 6 weeks ago and still haven't heard anything. The system is so broken.

•6 weeks? That's rough. I'm on week 4 of waiting and starting to get really worried about paying bills.

•Hang in there. I've heard some people waiting even longer. It's ridiculous how long they make us wait for benefits we've paid into.

Pro tip: if you can, fax your documents instead of mailing them. Seems to get processed faster in my experience.

•Lol I know right? But for some reason government agencies are stuck in the 90s 🤷♀️
