EDD SDI payments stopped - Doctor's certification submitted, no movement since July 1st

I found a way to solve missing doctor's certification for extension, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iq_nQrvGW9A

Hey, 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're living in a Kafka novel? 🤔 The bureaucracy is unreal.

Plot twist: EDD is actually run by a bunch of sloths. That's why everything takes forever. 🦥

Ugh, I feel your pain. The EDD system is such a mess rn. I had a similar issue last year. Here's what worked for me: 1. Call them first thing in the morning, like right when they open 2. Keep all your docs ready - claim number, dates, everything 3. Be super nice to the rep, even if you're frustrated 4. Ask for a supervisor if the first person can't help Good luck! Let us know how it goes.

Anyone else feel like they need a degree in bureaucracy just to navigate this system? 🎓🤦‍♂️

Ive been dealing with edd for over a year now. its a nightmare. my advice? document EVERYTHING. every call, every letter, every email. youll need it if you have to appeal

Here's what you need to do: 1. Call EDD immediately. Use the trick of calling right at 8:01 AM when they open. 2. Have all your info ready: claim number, last payment date, date you submitted the doctor's certification. 3. Be polite but firm. Explain your situation clearly. 4. Ask these specific questions: - Can they confirm receipt of your doctor's certification? - What's the current status of your payment processing? - When can you expect your missing payments to be issued? 5. If the rep can't help, politely ask to speak to a tier 2 specialist or a supervisor. 6. Take detailed notes during the call. 7. If they give you any tasks to complete, do them ASAP. 8. If you don't get a resolution, consider reaching out to your local assemblymember or senator's office. They often have liaisons who can help with EDD issues. 9. As a last resort, file an appeal if they deny your claim. Remember, persistence is key. Don't give up! Good luck!

I'm in the same boat, buddy. It's been 2 months since I submitted my docs and still radio silence. This whole situation is making me lose my mind. 😫

I swear, dealing with EDD is like trying to nail jello to a wall. 🤦‍♂️ I've been waiting on a response for 3 months now. This system is broken af.

have you tried faxing your docs? sometimes that works better than submitting online. just a thought

guys i think i figured it out. we need to sacrafice a goat under a full moon while chanting "EDD please help me" 3 times. works every time 60% of the time 🐐🌕

Pro tip: keep a detailed log of all your interactions with EDD. Dates, times, names of reps you talked to, what they said. It'll help if you need to escalate your case later.

Has anyone tried contacting their state representative? I've heard they can sometimes help push things along with EDD.

From what I've read about Claimyr, it offers an interesting service that can be a real time-saver for those struggling to get through to EDD. The $20 fee might seem high, but for many, especially those who have spent hours unsuccessfully trying to reach a representative, it could be worth the cost. However, it's important to remember that there's no guarantee of quick resolution once you do get through. EDD procedures can be slow, regardless of how promptly you connect with an agent. As with any service, it's wise to weigh the cost against potential benefits and keep in mind that for some, sticking with traditional methods might still be more feasible. Claimyr is one tool in a toolkit that can help, but patience and persistence often remain the key ingredients for dealing with complex bureaucratic systems like the EDD.

Have you checked your UI Online account? Sometimes they update info there without sending a notification. Might be worth a look.
