EDD payment delay after submitting continuous claim form - no updates for 2+ weeks. What to do?

I found a way to solve unemployment payment delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiNgpnrNXmY

Ugh, I'm in the same boat. It's so frustrating! I submitted mine around the same time and nada. Have you tried calling EDD? Good luck getting through tho 🙄

Hey there, I've been dealing with EDD for months now and here's what I've learned: 1. Delays are unfortunately common, especially around holidays. 2. Check your UI Online account daily for updates. 3. Make sure all your info is up to date and there are no pending questions. 4. If it's been more than 3 weeks, definitely try to contact them. 5. Consider reaching out to your local assembly member's office. They can sometimes help expedite things. Hang in there! The system is frustrating but keep at it.

have u checked ur bank account? sometimes the payment goes thru but the EDD website doesnt update for a few days

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

its probly cuz of the holidays. everythings slow rn. give it a few more days b4 u panic

This happened to me last month. Turns out there was a flag on my account for "additional verification" but they never notified me 🤦‍♂️ Def try to get ahold of someone if you can!

EDD is a joke. They need to upgrade their systems from the stone age. How are we supposed to survive when they can't even process claims on time? 🤬

Have you checked if there are any action items in your inbox on the EDD website? Sometimes they need additional info but don't make it obvious.

I'm dealing with the exact same issue! Filed my continuous claim form 16 days ago and still nothing. What's really frustrating is that my previous payments always came through within 3-4 days. I've been checking my UI Online account obsessively but there's literally no status update - it just shows "pending" with no explanation. Has anyone noticed if this is affecting people who filed around mid-December specifically? I'm wondering if there's some kind of system issue or if they're just overwhelmed with holiday processing. Really hope we all get some movement on our claims soon! 🤞
