EDD Extension Submitted - What Does 'Supplementary Certificate' Mean for Payment Timeline?

I found a way to solve unemployment extension payment delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGRds4S5lJM

Ugh, the waiting game is the worst! I've been there. A supplementary certificate usually means they needed extra info to process your claim. It could affect when you get paid, but it's hard to say for sure. When you talk to them, make sure to ask: 1. Is your extension fully processed? 2. Do they need anything else from you? 3. When can you expect payment after processing? Good luck!

I swear, dealing with unemployment is like a full-time job itself 🙄 The system is so broken

Hey, 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

In my experience, after they receive the supplementary certificate, it usually takes about 2-3 weeks for payment. But don't quote me on that, every case is different!

has anyone else noticed that the unemployment website is always down for "maintenance" when you need it most? 🙃

Pro tip: keep a detailed log of all your communications with them. Dates, times, who you spoke to, what was said. It's saved my butt more than once when there were discrepancies!
