EDD paperwork confusion - Did they receive it? What does the letter mean?

Ugh, been there done that. EDD's communication is about as clear as mud. Have you tried logging into your online account? Sometimes they update the status there before sending out letters.

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

Pro tip: Keep copies of EVERYTHING you send to EDD. I learned that the hard way when they "lost" my forms twice. 🤦‍♂️

Have you tried faxing your paperwork? I know it sounds like we're back in the 90s, but sometimes it's faster than mail and you can get a confirmation.

Listen up, folks. I've been dealing with EDD for years, and here's what you need to know: • Always keep copies of everything you send them. Everything. • Use certified mail when sending important documents. • Check your online account regularly for updates. • If you get a letter you don't understand, call them ASAP. Don't wait. • Keep a log of all your interactions with EDD, including dates and names of reps you talk to. • If all else fails, contact your local state representative. They can sometimes cut through the red tape. Remember, persistence is key. Don't give up!

Anyone else feel like dealing with EDD is a full-time job in itself? 🙃
