EDD SDI extension delay: No updates or payments for 2 months after submitting forms

I found a way to solve disability extension payment delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rlxY4DacPk0

Have you tried reaching out to your local representative? Sometimes they can help push things along with EDD.

Have you checked your online account? Sometimes they update info there without sending a notice. worth a shot 🤷‍♀️

have you tried faxing your forms? sometimes that works better than mailing or online submission. idk why but the system is stuck in 1995 🙄

Not to be that guy, but have you double-checked that you filled out all the forms correctly? One tiny mistake can hold up the whole process.

From my experience, leveraging every available resource is key. The system is notoriously slow, but there are ways to navigate it more effectively. Organizations that advocate for disability rights may also have resources or advice that can assist you.

OMG THIS IS LITERALLY ME RN!!! 😭 I've been waiting for 3 months and radio silence. This system is a joke!

Okay, listen up. I've been through this rodeo before and here's what you need to do: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your calls, forms submitted, and any correspondence. 2. Send a written request for an update via certified mail. This creates a paper trail they can't ignore. 3. If you haven't already, file an appeal. Even if you don't think you need to, it can sometimes kickstart the process. 4. Reach out to your state rep as someone else mentioned. They can often work miracles. 5. Consider contacting local media if things don't improve. Bad press can light a fire under them. 6. Join Facebook groups for disability claimants in your state. They often have insider tips and can provide moral support. Remember, persistence is key. Don't let them wear you down. You've got this! 💪

Anyone else think its weird how they can cut off our benefits instantly, but takes them forever to start them up again? 🤔 Make it make sense!

Ugh, I feel your pain. I've been in the same boat for weeks now. It's like they just forget about us once we submit the paperwork. Have you tried calling them?

I swear the system is designed to make us give up. It's a joke how they treat people who are already struggling. Hang in there, OP!

Hang in there, OP! I know it sucks rn but eventually they'll sort it out. Just keep bugging them!

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
