OP, have you looked into any state or local programs that might be able to help while you're sorting out your SSN situation? Sometimes there are emergency assistance funds or non-profit orgs that can provide temporary support.
This whole system is a joke. They make it so hard for people who actually need help to get it. Meanwhile, I bet there are tons of people scamming the system successfully. SMH 🤦♀️
Quick question - have you checked their website? Sometimes they have options for late submissions online. Might save you a call if you're lucky!
Dont forget to factor in taxes! Your part-time job will withhold taxes, but unemployment benefits often dont. Might wanna set some $$ aside so you dont get hit with a big bill come tax time.
Has anyone had luck getting through to EDD lately? I've been trying to ask about partial benefits but can never reach a human 😫

anyone else feel like the whole unemployment system is designed to be confusing on purpose? 🤔

Hey OP, don't sweat it too much. I was in the same boat a few months ago. Filed online, got super anxious, called like 50 times. In the end, everything was fine. Sometimes no news is good news with EDD.
