Has anyone had luck with contacting their local representative? I've heard sometimes they can help speed things up.
I'm in the same boat, friend. Been waiting on payments since September. This whole system is held together with duct tape and prayers at this point.
Here's what worked for me to get my SDI extension: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your attempts to contact them. 2. Check your online account daily for updates. 3. If calling doesn't work, try sending a message through the online portal. 4. Reach out to your local state representative's office. They can sometimes intervene on your behalf. 5. Be persistent but polite when you do get through to someone. 6. Make sure all your medical documentation is up to date and submitted. It's a frustrating process, but don't give up. You're entitled to these benefits!
Unpopular opinion: maybe if we all stopped calling constantly, it would be easier to get through 🤷♂️

Pro tip: If you can't get through on the phone, try reaching out on Twitter. Sometimes their social media team is more responsive.

Anyone else notice the online system has been extra glitchy lately? I can't even log in half the time 🤦♂️
