EDD SDI claim denied: $300 requirement waiver? New repeat code menu help needed

I found a way to solve disability claim denial issues, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mxt6Y3AVNoA

Have you tried turning it off and on again? 🤣

Plot twist: What if we all showed up at the EDD office dressed as clowns? They can't ignore us all! 🤡🤡🤡

Here's what you need to know about the $300 requirement and possible waivers: 1. The $300 minimum earnings requirement is per quarter in your base period. 2. Waivers are possible, but not guaranteed. They're usually considered for: - People with limited work history due to illness or injury - Those who've exhausted other benefits - Individuals with exceptional circumstances To request a waiver: - Explain your situation in detail when you speak to an EDD rep - Provide any supporting documentation - Be prepared to file an appeal if initially denied Remember, persistence is key when dealing with EDD. Don't give up!

That new repeat code menu is annoying af. You gotta listen carefully and repeat the 4-digit code they give you. It's like a game show or smthn 🙄

Remember when government services actually... served people? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

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

I've been there, buddy. The $300 requirement can be a real pain. Have you tried explaining your situation to them? Sometimes they can make exceptions if you have a good reason.

Hang in there, OP. We're all rooting for you. This too shall pass. Stay strong! ❤️

Yo, I've been in the same boat. It's rough out there. Just keep pushing and don't let the system get you down. You got this! 💪

It sounds like you're in a tough spot with the EDD disability claim process. Navigating the requirements and the bureaucracy can be really frustrating, but it's important to stay persistent. One potential avenue you could try is reaching out to your local representatives or advocacy groups who might have more influence or insight into the process. Also, keep meticulous records of every interaction you have with EDD; this information can be crucial if you need to file an appeal. Regarding the Claimyr tool mentioned, it does provide a shortcut to reaching a live agent, which can be invaluable when dealing with time-consuming phone queues. However, it's worth considering the cost versus the time and frustration it may save you. Ultimately, it's a personal decision whether the convenience is worth the price. Balanced with this, always be cautious of where and how you're spending your money, especially when dealing with systems that should be accessible to everyone without additional costs. Keep pushing forward, and remember that many others have faced similar challenges and have managed to get through it. You’re not alone in this.

Pro tip: document EVERYTHING. Every call, every letter, every interaction. It'll save your butt if you need to appeal.

Unpopular opinion: maybe we should just be grateful that disability benefits exist at all? Some countries don't even have this.

Guys I think I broke the edd website. I clicked submit and now my screen is just spinning. Help??? 😭

Anyone else feel like the EDD system is designed to be as confusing as possible? It's like they don't want us to get our benefits smh
