EDD Document Processing Time? Sent Docs Last Week, No Update Yet

I found a way to solve EDD document processing delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiF045VnLhI

Ugh, I feel ya. EDD can be such a pain. It usually takes a few weeks for them to update your claim after getting docs. Have you tried calling to check on the status?

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. Check out this video: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

Here's what I've learned from dealing with EDD for months: • Always keep copies of everything you send them • Follow up by phone if you don't hear back within 2 weeks • Use their online portal to check for updates daily • If possible, fax documents instead of mailing them • Be persistent but polite when calling Hope this helps! Hang in there, we're all in the same boat. 🚢

have u tried emailing them? sometimes that works better than calling

EDD is such a joke. I swear they make it complicated on purpose to discourage people from claiming benefits. The whole system needs an overhaul!

Quick question - did you send your docs certified mail? That way you have proof they received them. Might help if you need to follow up.

Anyone else notice that EDD seems to be moving even slower since the pandemic? I swear it used to be better than this...
