EDD Disability Claim Stuck After Submitting Extra Doc - What Now?

I found a way to solve disability claim processing delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w10JmUv1oIk

Ugh, I feel ya. I've been dealing with EDD for months now. It's like they purposely make it confusing 🙄 Have you tried calling them? Sometimes that's the only way to get a straight answer.

I found a way 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 a video about it: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

Here's what I've learned from my experience with disability claims: 1. Document everything. Keep copies of all paperwork and note down dates of all interactions. 2. Follow up regularly. Don't assume no news is good news. 3. Be persistent but polite when calling. The person on the other end is probably overworked. 4. Check your online account frequently for updates or requests for info. 5. If you're really stuck, consider contacting your local state representative. They can sometimes help push things along. Hang in there, OP. The system is slow, but it does work... eventually.

am i the only 1 who thinks its crazy we gotta jump thru all these hoops just to get whats ours? 🤔 the whole systems broken af

Quick question - did you get any kind of confirmation when you sent in that extra document? Sometimes they can get 'lost in the system' 🙄

I heard they changed some policies recently. Anyone know if that's affecting processing times?

Have you tried checking your claim status online? Sometimes the website has updates before they call or send mail.

lol welcome to bureaucracy hell. grab a seat, you'll be here a while 😂😭
