EDD SDI payment timeline after first 14 days - Will I get paid tomorrow or Monday?

it depends on ur bank but usually 24-48 hours after certification gets processed. might see it tmrw but prolly monday

The payment timeline typically works like this: Once you complete your certification, EDD processes it within 24 hours (business days). Then it takes 1-2 banking days for the funds to appear in your account. Since you certified on Thursday, EDD will likely process it today (Friday), but whether you see it tomorrow or Monday depends entirely on your bank's processing times. Most banks don't post deposits on weekends, so Monday is most likely. Check your claim status on SDI Online - when it shows 'Paid' rather than 'Pending', that means EDD has processed it and sent payment.

Waiting for that first payment is THE WORST. I swear I checked my account like 50 times a day when I was waiting for mine lol. Mine took 3 days from certification to actually seeing money in my account. But that was with Bank of America EDD debit card, direct deposit might be faster?

Just to clarify something important - SDI payments aren't the same as unemployment payments. With SDI, your first payment includes everything from your disability start date MINUS the 7-day waiting period. So your first payment should cover 7 days (14 days minus the waiting period). All future payments will cover the full period that you certify for. I mention this because a lot of people are surprised when their first payment is smaller than expected.

The EDD system is TERRIBLE about keeping claimants informed on payment timing!!! I had to call them THREE TIMES during my disability claim because payments didn't show up when expected. Sometimes there's random "reviews" they do that delay things but they never tell you! This is why people get so stressed! If you need to call them, good luck - I had to redial for literally 2.5 HOURS before getting through to anyone!!

Just checked back to see if you got an update. One more thing to know: if your certification was properly submitted and there are no issues with your claim, your payment will almost certainly be processed. First payments sometimes take a little longer because they're doing their initial verification, but in my experience with both my claims, subsequent payments are much more predictable. Keep us posted!

my sisters cousin works for EDD and she says they're always super backed up on thursdays and fridays so don't be surprised if u dont see anything til at least tuesday. the whole system is rigged anyways, they make us wait while bills pile up!

Congrats on getting your status changed to 'Paid'! That's awesome news. For future reference, once you're past this first payment, the timing becomes much more predictable. I've been on SDI twice and after the initial payment, I could basically set my calendar by when the money would hit my account. Usually certified on Sunday, paid status by Monday evening, money in account by Wednesday morning. The first one is always the most stressful because you don't know what to expect. Hope your bank processes it quickly for you!
