EDD claim status - no response after 3 weeks. What to do?

I found a way to solve long claim paperwork processing delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dP5sJ0YMrA

Ugh, I'm in the same boat. Sent my paperwork in like a month ago and crickets. The waiting game is killing me 😫

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

Here's what I've learned from dealing with EDD for way too long: 1. Document EVERYTHING. Keep copies of all paperwork you send in. 2. Follow up regularly. Don't just wait for them to contact you. 3. If you can't get through on the phone, try reaching out via their online portal or even snail mail. 4. Be persistent but polite. The people on the other end are probably overwhelmed too. 5. If all else fails, contact your local state representative. They can sometimes help push things along. Hang in there, OP. The system is a mess, but don't give up!

Here's what I've learned from dealing with claims for years: 1. Document everything. Keep copies of all paperwork you send in. 2. Follow up regularly. Don't just wait for them to contact you. 3. If possible, fax your documents. It's often faster than mail. 4. Be persistent but polite when you do get through to someone. 5. Check your online account regularly for updates. 6. Consider contacting your local representative if it's been an excessive wait. Hope this helps! Hang in there, the system can be frustrating but eventually it works out.

have you checked your online account? sometimes they update stuff there without actually contacting you

have you tried checking your online account? sometimes they update there before sending anything out

3 weeks? lol try 3 months 🤡 EDD is a joke

3 weeks? lol thats nothing. I've been waiting for 2 months now. The system is completely broken 🤡

I heard they're super backlogged because of all the fraud cases they're dealing with. Might be why it's taking so long.

Anyone know if theres like a fax number or email we can use instead of snail mail? Feels like were living in the stone age with this system 🦕

I heard they're super backlogged bc of covid still. Might be why its taking so long for everyone
