EDD Payment Delay: Haven't Received Money in Weeks. What to Do?

I found a way to solve payment delays for unemployment claims, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKOAjnO8h68

Ugh, I feel you. I've been waiting on my payment for weeks now. It's so frustrating! Have you tried checking your account online to see if there's any update?

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

Have you tried reaching out on social media? Sometimes they respond faster there. Worth a shot!

I've been dealing with this for MONTHS. The system is completely broken. They need to hire more people or upgrade their tech or SOMETHING. We can't keep living like this!

Here's what I've learned after dealing with this issue for way too long: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your calls, emails, and online account updates. 2. Be persistent. Call every day if you have to. 3. Reach out to your local representative. Sometimes they can help push things through. 4. Check if there are any known system issues or updates that might be causing delays. 5. Make sure all your information is up to date in the system. 6. If you're really struggling, look into emergency assistance programs in your area. Hang in there, OP. I know it's tough, but keep pushing!

anyone else feel like were living in a kafka novel? asking for a friend 😅

Hey OP, when was your last payment? And have you had any changes to your claim recently?
