EDD Supplementary Certificate Issue - Need Help ASAP!

Hey everyone, I'm having an issue with my supplementary certificate. It started a couple weeks ago and I'm not sure what to do. Has anyone else dealt with this? Any advice on how to handle it or who to contact?

Ugh, supplementary certificates are such a pain! I had to deal with one last year. Have you tried calling EDD? They might be able to help you sort it out.

I've been trying to call but can't get through. It's so frustrating!

Pro tip: call right when they open. I got through after only 20 minutes on hold that way.

20 minutes? You got lucky! I was on hold for 2 hours last time 😭

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

$20 to actually talk to someone? Might be worth it at this point lol

Here's what you need to know about supplementary certificates: • They're usually issued when there's missing info on your original claim • You have 10 days to complete and return it • If you don't return it, your benefits might be delayed or denied • Make sure to fill out ALL sections, even if you have to write "N/A" • Double check your math if there are calculations involved • Keep a copy for your records If you're having trouble with a specific part, let me know and I can try to help!

Wow, thank you so much for this detailed info! I didn't realize there was a 10-day deadline. I better get on this ASAP.

Same boat here. It's like they're playing games with our lives šŸ™„

Hey OP, what exactly is the issue with your supplementary certificate? Did you not receive it, or are you having trouble filling it out?

0 coins

I received it, but I'm not sure how to fill out some sections. It's asking for info I don't have.

0 coins

Gotcha. For any sections you're unsure about, call EDD and ask for clarification. Better to get it right than risk delays!

@Connor O'Neill Which specific sections are giving you trouble? I just went through this process a few months ago and might be able to help you figure out what info they're looking for. Also, if you're missing documents they're asking for, you can usually write "Will provide upon request" or "Not available" and explain why in the margins.
