EDD Medical Forms Submitted 1+ Month Ago Still Pending - Need Help!

I found a way to solve EDD claim pending for weeks, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPYMP3EVEKA

Ugh, I feel ya. The EDD system is such a mess rn. Have you tried calling them? It's a pain, but sometimes that's the only way to get answers.

I found a method to 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 you need to do: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of when you submitted forms, any confirmation numbers, etc. 2. Try to reach out via their online portal if possible. Sometimes you can get responses there. 3. If calling doesn't work, consider reaching out to your local assembly member's office. They often have direct lines to EDD. 4. Be persistent but polite. The system is overwhelmed, but most workers genuinely want to help. 5. Check if there are any missing documents on your end. Sometimes they need additional info but don't communicate it well. Hang in there! The process is frustrating, but keep at it. 💪

have u checked ur spam folder? sometimes edd emails end up there lol. happened to me and i was stressing for no reason

This is why we need to overhaul the entire system. It's ridiculous that hardworking people have to jump through so many hoops just to get the benefits they deserve. 😤

Have you tried faxing your documents? I know it sounds ancient, but sometimes it gets through faster than online submissions. Worth a shot!

im in the same boat. submitted my forms 2 months ago and crickets. this whole process is a joke

Quick question - did you make sure to fill out form DE 2501 completely? I missed a section and it delayed my claim for weeks. Just throwing it out there in case it helps!

Hot take: the system is designed to be confusing on purpose. They hope people will just give up. Don't let them win! Keep pushing!
