SDI pregnancy claim stuck in 'pending processing' for months - no payments received. Help!

Has anyone else been waiting forever for their SDI pregnancy disability claim to be processed? I filed my claim back in November and it's still showing as "pending processing". The state confirmed they got my claim and my doctor's certification, but I haven't heard anything since then. It's been months and I haven't received any payments. This is so frustrating! How long did it take for others to start getting their payments?

Has anyone tried contacting their doctor's office to see if there's an issue with the medical certification? Sometimes that can hold things up.

I didn't even think of that! I'll give my OB's office a call tomorrow. Thanks!

Ugh, I remember going through this last year. Took forever to get my payments started. Hang in there, OP! It'll come through eventually. ๐Ÿ’ช

EDD not auto-paying weekly benefits - forced to call every time for payment. Help!

Hey everyone, I'm having some serious issues with my unemployment payments. I'm supposed to be getting paid weekly, but it's not happening automatically. I have to call them every single time just to get the money into my account. It's so frustrating! Has anyone else dealt with this? Any advice on how to fix it or at least make the process smoother?

Not sure if this helps, but I had a similar issue last year. Turns out there was a glitch in their system that was flagging my account for review every week. Took forever to get it sorted, but once they fixed it on their end, the payments started coming regularly. Might be worth asking if there's a technical issue on your account.

That's interesting, I hadn't even considered it might be a technical glitch. I'll definitely ask about that next time I call. Thanks!

Seriously, the whole system needs an overhaul. It's ridiculous that we have to jump through so many hoops just to get what we're entitled to.
