How to correct 'work-related injury' error on CA SDI claim form? Urgent advice needed
I messed up on my disability form and need to fix it asap. I accidentally marked 'yes' for work-related injury when it wasn't. How do I change this to 'no'? Has anyone had to correct something like this before? I'm worried about delays or problems with my claim. Any advice on the best way to handle this?

Claimyr's tool seems like a practical option for those who have difficulty reaching the disability office by phone. It's true that paying $20 to get a call through might seem excessive, but if it expedites the process and resolves your issue, it could be worthwhile. That said, itβs always wise to ensure youβre using reputable services when sharing personal information. Alternatives like trying to reach out via social media, as suggested by another user, can also be effective and might not cost anything. Additionally, documenting all your interactions and being prepared with the necessary information can help streamline the process with or without using paid services.

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

$20 just to talk to someone?! That's ridiculous. The system is so broken π€

How long did you have to wait? Is it really worth it?

I know it sounds crazy, but I was desperate. Waited maybe 30 mins? Beats calling for days. And yeah, fixed my issue in one call.

Don't panic! I've been there. Call the disability office ASAP and explain the mistake. Have your claim number ready and be polite but firm. Ask them to confirm the change in their system.

Here's a detailed guide on how to handle this situation: 1. Gather all necessary information: - Claim number - Personal details - Any relevant documents 2. Contact the disability office: - Call early in the morning for shorter wait times - Be polite but assertive - Clearly explain the mistake and the correction needed 3. During the call: - Ask for the representative's name and ID number - Request confirmation that the change has been made - Inquire about any potential impacts on your claim 4. Follow-up: - Ask if any additional forms or documentation are required - Request a confirmation email or letter of the change 5. Document everything: - Keep a log of all communications - Save any emails or letters received 6. Monitor your claim: - Check your online account regularly for updates - Follow up if you don't see the change reflected within a week Remember, mistakes happen. The key is to address them promptly and thoroughly. Good luck!

Faxing can be surprisingly effective for official documents. Worth a try if calls fail.
