EDD denied my claim saying no proof provided, but I sent everything. What now?

I found a way to solve EDD identity verification denial issue, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VmZd-UQv--8

Ugh, that sucks. EDD is such a mess. I had a similar issue last year. Have you tried calling them? Sometimes you can get lucky and find someone helpful on the phone.

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

Here's what you need to do: 1. File an appeal immediately. You have 30 days from the date of the denial to do this. 2. In your appeal, clearly state that you submitted your driver's license and tax return on Sept 16. 3. Include copies of the documents again with your appeal. 4. If you have any confirmation emails or screenshots showing you submitted the docs, include those too. 5. Request a hearing. 6. While waiting for the hearing, try to get through to EDD on the phone. Keep detailed notes of all your attempts. 7. Consider contacting your state representative. They can sometimes help push things through. 8. If all else fails, look into legal aid services in your area. Some offer free help with EDD issues. Don't give up! The system is broken, but persistence usually pays off eventually.

have you tried faxing your documents? sometimes the online system glitches and doesnt actually upload stuff. i know its archaic but faxing worked for me lol

This is why I always tell people to take screenshots of EVERYTHING when dealing with EDD. Their system is so buggy, you need proof of every single thing you do.

Im in the exact same boat rn. sent everything they asked for and still got denied. its like they dont even look at what we send them. whole system is a joke tbh

Have you considered reaching out to your local assemblymember or state senator? They often have staff dedicated to helping constituents with EDD issues. It's worth a shot!

edd be playin games fr 🤡 they probably lost ur docs and now tryna cover their a$$
