How long for SDI claim update and direct deposit? Any notification?

I found a way to speed up SDI direct deposit, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-obup_jHBkc

Ugh, I feel ya. I've been waiting on my SDI update for weeks now. It's like they're moving at a snail's pace or something. No text, no email, nothing. It's so frustrating!

In my experience, it can take anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks. They don't always send notifications, so you might want to check your account regularly. Have you tried logging into the SDI online portal? Sometimes updates show up there before you get any official communication.

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: If you're waiting on a direct deposit, make sure your bank account info is up to date in the system. I made that mistake and it delayed my payment by weeks. 🤦‍♂️

yall ever wonder if theres like ONE person working at SDI? cause thats what it feels like sometimes 🤣

Here's what I've learned from dealing with SDI claims: 1. Be patient. Unfortunately, the process can take time. 2. Double-check all your information. Any small error can cause delays. 3. Keep all your documents organized and easily accessible. 4. If possible, use their online portal. It's often faster than mail. 5. If you need to call, try early in the morning or late in the afternoon. 6. Don't be afraid to follow up if it's been more than 2 weeks without any update. 7. Consider reaching out to your local assembly member's office if you're really stuck. They can sometimes help expedite things. Hope this helps! Hang in there, OP. We're all in the same boat.

have u tried sacrificing a goat to the SDI gods? heard that speeds things up 🐐🔮

Hey Haley! I just went through this same process last month. For me, the direct deposit took about 10 business days to show up after my claim was approved. You won't get a text notification, but you should get an email confirmation once the payment is processed. I'd recommend checking your SDI online account every few days - that's usually where you'll see updates first. Also make sure your banking info is correct in the system (like Ali mentioned) because that's a common holdup. Hang in there, it's frustrating but it will come through!
