Pro tip: If you're trying to reach a specific department, try these menu options when you call: 1. Press 1 for English 2. Press 1 for claim questions 3. Press 2 for employer questions 4. Enter your social security number 5. Press 1 to confirm This usually gets me to a human faster. Hope it helps!
Have you considered reaching out to your local assembly member's office? They often have direct lines to EDD and can help push your claim through faster. Worth a shot if you're really stuck!
Have you checked your spam folder? I know it sounds dumb, but I found my update email there after weeks of waiting!
I heard they're super backlogged rn because of some new policy changes. Might be why it's taking so long.
OP, when did you file your claim? It can take up to 3 weeks for them to even start processing it. The whole system is a joke tbh

Has anyone else noticed that the EDD website is always down for maintenance when you need it most? It's like they WANT us to miss our certification deadlines 🙄

•Pro tip: Try accessing the site late at night or early morning. Less traffic, fewer issues!

Guys, I'm in the same boat. Been on unemployment for 3 months now and every week is a new adventure in bureaucratic nonsense. Hang in there, we're all learning the ropes together! 💪
