Need advice on SDI payment extensions - what's the process like?

EDD Nightmare: Called about reduced hours, given wrong form, call disconnected. What now?
Hey everyone, I'm in a bit of a pickle. I got a call on Sunday about reduced hours at work, and now I need to file for assistance. The problem is, when I tried to call and get help, they didn't give me the right form. The call got disconnected before we could sort it out. Has anyone else dealt with this? Any advice on what to do next?

I'm in the same boat, OP. Reduced hours are the worst because you're not fully unemployed but you're still struggling. Solidarity, friend. 💪
Thanks for the support. It really helps to know I'm not alone in this. How are you managing?
Barely keeping my head above water, but we'll get through this. Gotta stay positive, right? 😅
EDD Continued Claim: No Online Updates After Doctor Submission - When to Expect Payment?
Hey everyone, I'm having an issue with my continued claim. My doctor submitted the paperwork a few days ago, but I'm not seeing any updates online. I got my last payment the day after they submitted it, but now I'm wondering when I'll get my next payment. Anyone else dealing with this? How long does it usually take for them to process continued claims?

Anyone else feel like they need a degree in bureaucracy just to navigate the EDD system? 🎓🤔
For real! I'm thinking of adding "EDD Expert" to my resume at this point 😅
SDI claim stuck due to physician info issue - need advice
Hey everyone, I'm having trouble with my SDI claim. I submitted all the paperwork but it looks like there might be an issue with my physician's details. Has anyone else run into this problem? Any advice on what I should do next?

Quick question - how long ago did you submit your claim? Sometimes it just takes forever for them to process stuff.
I submitted it about 3 weeks ago. Is that normal processing time?
3 weeks isn't too bad actually. I've heard of ppl waiting 6-8 weeks! But def follow up if you haven't heard anything.

Anyone else notice how they always seem to 'lose' our paperwork? I've sent the same forms like 5 times now. Starting to think there's a black hole in their mailroom 🕳️
LOL same. I started taking pictures of everything before I send it. CYA all day everyday

Anyone else feel like the whole system is designed to wear you down until you just give up? 😤

Hey OP, have you checked if you qualify for any other types of assistance while you're figuring out the extension? Sometimes there are local programs or charities that can help bridge the gap.
