EDD SDI Overpayment: Accidentally reported full-time work, how to fix $365 mistake?

I found a way to solve EDD overpayment correction issues, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdY4ug_HwL8

Have you tried reaching out to your local assembly member's office? Sometimes they can help cut through the red tape with EDD. Worth a shot if you strike out with the regular channels.

Have you considered just ignoring it and hoping it goes away? (I'm kidding, don't do that. But man, it's tempting sometimes with how frustrating EDD can be

Remember, the person you talk to at EDD is probably just as frustrated with the system as you are. A little kindness goes a long way. Kill 'em with kindness, as they say!

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

Anyone else feel like we need a support group for dealing with EDD? 😂 "Hi, my name is [redacted] and I've been trying to reach EDD for 3 months"

Pro tip: If you can't get through on the phone, try reaching out via social media. Sometimes their Twitter support is surprisingly responsive.

Unpopular opinion: Despite all its flaws, we're lucky to have a system like EDD. Try dealing with unemployment in some other countries. Not saying it's perfect, but it could be worse.

Been there, done that. Call the Benefits Overpayment Section directly. They're the ones who can sort this out quickest. When you get through, explain the mistake clearly and offer to pay right away. They'll appreciate the honesty and willingness to fix it.

Just a heads up, EDD has been updating their systems lately. Make sure you're using the most current forms and check their website for any new procedures. They love to change things without telling anyone 🙄

Thanks everyone for the advice! I'll try calling the Benefits Overpayment Section first thing tomorrow. Fingers crossed 🤞

Here's what you should say: "Hello, I made a mistake on my form and accidentally reported returning to full-time work. I'm actually working reduced hours and still qualify for partial SDI. I received an overpayment notice for $365, which I can pay immediately. Can you guide me on how to correct this and process the payment?" Be polite, clear, and have all your info ready. Good luck!

I had a similar issue last year. Make sure you get EVERYTHING in writing. Even if they say it's resolved over the phone, request a confirmation email or letter. Trust me, you'll thank me later if anything goes sideways.

PSA: Always double-check your forms before submitting! I know it's a pain, but it can save you so much hassle down the line. Learned that one the hard way 😅

lol welcome to the wonderful world of EDD 🎪🤡 where the rules are made up and the forms don't matter

$365 overpayment? You got off easy, my friend. I'm still battling a $5k overpayment from 2021. EDD is like a black hole where logic and reason go to die.

Ugh, EDD is such a mess 🤦‍♀️ I swear they make these forms confusing on purpose. Good luck getting through to anyone tho, their phone lines are always jammed
