SDI payments stopped since Nov 21 - No explanation from EDD. Help!
Hey everyone, I'm in a bit of a pickle here. I haven't received any payments from my SDI account since November 21st. It's been over a month now, and I'm starting to get really worried. I've tried reaching out to them, but I haven't gotten any explanation for the delay. Has anyone else experienced something similar or know what might be causing this? I'm not sure if I should be doing something on my end or if it's just a system issue. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Quick question - did you certify for benefits after filing? Some ppl forget that step and it delays everything.
Yep, I made sure to certify. Still no luck 😕
What forms needed for SDI identity verification? Incomplete submission help!

PSA: If you're having trouble with the online system, try using a different browser. For some reason, it works better on Firefox than Chrome for me. 🤷♂️
OMG thank you!!! This actually worked for me! You're a lifesaver 💯
SDI claim pending for over a month, no payments received. Any advice?
Hey everyone, I'm in a bit of a pickle here. I've been out of work since early November due to an injury, and my doctor submitted all the paperwork for my disability claim about a week later. It's been over a month now, and I still haven't received any payments. The online system just shows my claim as 'pending'. Has anyone else dealt with this? Any advice on how to speed things up or at least get an update on what's going on?

Oof, a month with no income? That's rough buddy. The system is totally borked rn. Have you considered setting up a GoFundMe or something to help tide you over?
I hadn't thought of that... might be a good backup plan if this drags on much longer. Thanks for the suggestion!

Anyone else feel like we're living in a Kafka novel trying to deal with EDD? It's absurd how difficult they make this process.
LOL for real. I'm half expecting to wake up as a giant bug at this point 🐛

I had a similar issue last year. Turns out there was a glitch in their system that was affecting a bunch of claims. It took them like 2 months to sort it out, but I eventually got all my backpay. Hang in there!

AuthorOh man, 2 months? That's rough. But glad to hear you eventually got your money. Gives me some hope!
