Has anyone heard about the new bill they're considering that might affect extensions? I saw something on the news but couldn't find much info online.
pro tip: document EVERYTHING. every call, every letter, every email. you never know when youll need to prove you did something or they said something. saved my butt more than once!
lol watch them say they 'lost' your paperwork. happened to me and I had to start the whole process over again 🙃
Hang in there, OP! The waiting game sucks but your payment will come eventually. Just keep following up and don't let them forget about you!
Thanks for the encouragement! It's been tough but I'm trying to stay positive.
Preach 🙌 Sometimes I think they make it this difficult on purpose
Hey OP, just wondering - what specific issue are you dealing with regarding Paid Family Leave? Might be able to give more targeted advice if we know the details.
Thanks for asking! I'm trying to file a claim for bonding time with my newborn, but I'm not sure if I'm eligible since I work part-time. That's why I really need to talk to someone directly.
Ah gotcha. Part-time can be tricky. Make sure you have your exact hours worked for the past 18 months when you call. They'll need that to determine eligibility. Congrats on the new baby btw!
have you tried checking your claim status online? sometimes its faster then calling
I didn't even know that was an option! I'll give it a shot, thanks!
Bruh, I swear the EDD is run by clowns 🤡 Good luck getting any straight answers from them lmao

Anyone else notice that these issues seem to happen more often at the end of the quarter? I wonder if it's because theyre processing a bunch of new claims or something.

OP, make sure you're not hitting your benefit cap. I freaked out when my payment didn't come, but it turned out I had just reached the maximum benefit amount. Check your total claim balance!
