EDD hasn't responded 2 weeks after receiving address verification and ID proof. Normal wait time?

Ugh, welcome to the club. I sent mine in over a month ago and still crickets. EDD is slower than molasses in January 🐌

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 I've learned from my experience with EDD: 1. Document everything. Keep copies of all paperwork you send. 2. Follow up regularly. Call or use their online portal to check status. 3. Be persistent. Sometimes you have to contact them multiple times. 4. Consider reaching out to your local assembly member's office. They can sometimes expedite things. 5. Check your spam folder regularly. Sometimes important emails end up there. It sucks, but you gotta stay on top of it. The squeaky wheel gets the grease with these bureaucrats.

have u checked ur ui online account? sometimes they update stuff there without sendin an email

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

Pro tip: If you can, try faxing your documents instead of mailing. Seems to go through faster in my experience.
