3 weeks since filing claim, no update. Anyone else waiting this long for EDD?

Hey everyone, I'm getting really frustrated with my claim. It's been 3 weeks since I filed and I still haven't heard anything back. Has anyone else been waiting this long? I'm starting to worry that something went wrong with my application. Any advice on how to speed things up or at least get an update?

Anyone know if there's been any news about speeding up the process? I heard they were hiring more people to handle claims, but idk if that's actually happening.

I saw something about that on the news last week. They said they're training new staff, but it'll take time to see results.

0 coins

Yeah right, I'll believe it when I see it. They've been saying that for months now ๐Ÿ™„

Just a heads up, I finally got my claim processed after 6 weeks. Don't lose hope! It's slow, but they are working through them.

Congrats! Did you do anything special to move it along?

0 coins

Nope, just waited it out. I think they're just really backed up.

EDD payment extension delay - no word on next auto-payment despite doctor's supplemental cert. What to expect?

Hey everyone, I'm in a bit of a pickle with my unemployment claim. I got a payment extension and my doctor sent in a supplemental medical cert, but I'm still waiting on my next payment. I'm on automatic payments, but there's been no word on when I'll get the next one. Anyone else dealing with this? What should I expect with a payment extension?

have u tried faxing ur docs? sometimes that gets faster results than mailing or uploading online. just a thought

Faxing? What year is it? ๐Ÿ˜‚ But seriously, I didn't even think of that. Might give it a try if things don't move soon.

This is why we need a complete overhaul of the unemployment system. It's not built to handle real-world situations. We shouldn't have to jump through hoops just to get the benefits we're entitled to.

Preach! ๐Ÿ™Œ The whole system is held together with duct tape and prayers.

EDD benefits messed up due to vacation pay and pay cut - help!

Hey everyone, I'm in a bit of a pickle with my unemployment benefits. My employer gave me 40 hours of vacation pay during the EDD waiting period, but now they've cut my pay to 30%. I'm worried this might have messed up my benefits. Has anyone dealt with something similar? What should I say when I call EDD about this?

Hey OP, quick question - did your employer give you any documentation about the vacation pay or the pay reduction? That could be super helpful when talking to EDD.

0 coins

Good point! I have an email about the vacation pay, but nothing official about the reduction. I'll ask HR for something in writing.

EDD Medical Exam Success - Anyone Else Have a Good Experience?

Just had my medical exam for EDD and it went great! Anyone else have a positive experience recently? I was nervous about it but everything turned out fine. Curious to hear how it's going for others.

Anyone else feel like the whole EDD system is just designed to make us give up? Been fighting with them for months and I'm bout ready to throw in the towel ๐Ÿ˜ค

Preach! ๐Ÿ™Œ It's like navigating a maze blindfolded sometimes

Hang in there! I know it sucks, but don't let them win. Your benefits are your right!

PSA: If anyone's having trouble with their online account, EDD just updated their system last week. Might need to clear your browser cache or try a different browser if you're getting errors.

EDD missing 2 weeks of payments, no notice - what to do?

Hey everyone, I'm freaking out. I just checked my account and I'm missing 2 weeks of unemployment payments. I haven't received any notices or letters explaining why. Has anyone else experienced this? What should I do when I finally get through to EDD? I'm worried sick about how I'm gonna pay my bills this month.

I'm in the same boat, been waiting on 3 weeks of payments. This whole system is a joke. We need to organize and demand better treatment!

0 coins

Preach! ๐Ÿ™Œ Maybe we should start a petition or something?

0 coins

Lol good luck with that. EDD doesn't care about us peasants ๐Ÿ™„

Pro tip: call right when they open. I usually have better luck getting through early in the morning. Also, Wednesdays seem to be less busy for some reason.

0 coins

This. Also, try calling from a different phone number if you can. Sometimes they block numbers that call too often.
