How to cancel EDD disability claim? Filed in November, received notices

I've been through this before. First thing you need to do is contact EDD directly. They usually want you to submit a written request to cancel your claim. Make sure you include your claim number and the reason for cancellation. Be prepared for some back-and-forth. They might ask for additional info or documentation. It can take a few weeks to process, so be patient!
