EDD Address Verification Delay - Sent Docs 2/13, No Response Yet. What to Do?

Ugh, welcome to the club 🙄 EDD is notorious for taking their sweet time. I waited almost 2 months after sending my docs before I heard anything back. Hang in there!

Have you tried calling them? Sometimes you gotta be proactive and bug them a little to get things moving.

I found a method to actually get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works.

Here's what I've learned from dealing with EDD for the past year: 1. Document everything. Keep copies of all your mail, take screenshots of online submissions, and note down every phone call. 2. Be persistent. Call regularly, but also use their online portal to send messages. 3. Reach out to your local assembly member's office. They can sometimes expedite things. 4. Check your spam folder religiously. Sometimes important EDD emails end up there. 5. Join EDD-focused Facebook groups. They often have insider tips and can alert you to system updates. 6. If you can, upload documents online instead of mailing them. It's usually faster. 7. Be prepared for long waits, but don't give up. Your claim will get processed eventually. Hope this helps! Stay strong, we're all in this together 💪

have u checked ur ui online account? sometimes they update stuff there w/o sending an email or anything

I'm in the exact same boat, OP. Sent my docs on Feb 10, delivered on the 12th, and radio silence since then. Starting to feel like I'm shouting into the void here 😶

Plot twist: EDD actually received your docs, but they're using them as coffee coasters. Seriously though, their backlog is insane rn. Hang tight!

Hey, former EDD employee here. The verification process can take up to 10 weeks, especially if they're backlogged. My advice: keep checking your UI Online account, and if you haven't heard anything by week 8, start calling or contact your local assemblyperson for help.
