EDD won't send medical examiner referral or process payments - help!
I'm so frustrated with EDD right now. They haven't sent my payment because they need to send a referral for an independent medical examiner. I tried making an appointment, but the examiner's office said they hadn't received any referral from EDD. On top of that, I need EDD to pay me up until they actually make the referral. Has anyone else dealt with this? Any advice on how to get them to send the referral and process my payments?

EDD disability payments not received - need help troubleshooting
Hey everyone, I'm having a really frustrating issue with my disability payments. I haven't received anything from EDD for my disability claim and I'm starting to get worried. Has anyone else experienced this? Any advice on what I should do or who I should contact? I'm not sure if there's a problem with my claim or if it's just taking longer than usual. Any help would be appreciated!

Has anyone tried contacting their state representative? I've heard they can sometimes help speed things up.
how do you even find out who your state rep is?
Just google '[your state] find my representative'. Most states have websites where you can input your address and it'll tell you.
guys. i just got off the phone with EDD after using that claimyr thing. IT ACTUALLY WORKED. im shook 😳
No way! How long did it take?
like 45 mins total. way better than the 3+ hours i usually waste trying to get through

Thanks in advance for any help!

Anyone else notice that the SDI website is always "under maintenance" when you try to check your claim status online? 🙄 It's like they're allergic to technology or something.
omg yes! I swear they do it on purpose to make us call instead. 🤔
Conspiracy theory: the website is run by hamsters on wheels and they're always on break 🐹💤
Here's a crazy idea: what if we all showed up at the SDI office in person? Like a flash mob, but for claims 😂 Maybe then they'd get their act together!
LOL imagine the look on their faces! 👀 But for real, that might just cause more chaos.
I'm in! Let's make it happen. Who's bringing the protest signs? 😆

Anybody else notice that EDD seems to work faster when Mercury isn't in retrograde? 👀

Maybe we should all start doing EDD dances under the full moon to speed up our claims 💃🌕
EDD payment delayed, can't reach anyone - help!
I haven't gotten paid for my unemployment claim and I don't know why. I'm trying to call EDD to find out what's going on with my payments but I can't get through. Has anyone else had this problem? Any advice on how to get in touch with them or figure out why my payments are delayed?

Has anyone else noticed that their claim status changes randomly? Mine went from 'paid' to 'pending' and back again without me doing anything. EDD's system seems buggier than a summer campground.
YES! Thought I was going crazy. It's like playing unemployment roulette.

Ugh, I feel for you. I've been waiting 3 months for my claim to be processed. The whole system needs an overhaul.

3 months?! That's insane. How are you surviving?

Barely. Living off credit cards and help from family. It's a nightmare.
