How to update employer info for PFL after company acquisition?

I found a way to solve updating employer for PFL benefits, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjKbUL6WJxU

I went through this last year. You'll need to gather acquisition documents and prepare details about both your old and new company. It's not too complicated, but make sure you have everything ready before you start the process.

Ugh, I hate dealing with PFL bureaucracy. Good luck, OP. You're gonna need it 🙄

Here's a detailed guide on updating employer info for PFL: 1. Gather acquisition documents (merger agreement, official company announcement) 2. Prepare old company details (name, address, EIN) 3. Prepare new company details (same as above) 4. Contact PFL office via phone or online portal 5. Submit all documents and information 6. Follow up regularly until the change is processed Remember to keep copies of everything you submit and note down any case numbers they give you. It can take anywhere from 2-6 weeks depending on their workload. Hope this helps!

I found a method to get someone on the phone quickly. 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 explaining it: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

Has anyone had issues with their benefits after updating employer info? I'm worried about potential gaps in coverage.

Pro tip: If you're having trouble reaching someone, try calling right when they open. I always have better luck first thing in the morning.

Anyone else feel like we need a complete overhaul of the PFL system? It's 2023, why is everything still so complicated? 🤦‍♂️
