SDI Account Locked - Can't Log In, Need Help ASAP!

Ugh, I've been there. It's so frustrating when you can't access your own account! Have you tried resetting your password? Sometimes that can help unlock it.

The disability account system is such a mess. I swear they make it difficult on purpose to discourage people from claiming benefits. 🙄

Here's what you need to do to unlock your account: 1. Call the disability office directly. Don't bother with the website if you're locked out. 2. Have your social security number and any claim numbers ready. 3. Be prepared to verify your identity. They might ask for things like your address, date of birth, or recent employers. 4. Explain that your account is locked and you need it unlocked. 5. They might ask why it got locked - if you know (like too many failed login attempts), tell them. 6. Follow their instructions carefully. They might give you a temporary password or a special link to reset things. 7. If the first person can't help, politely ask to speak to a supervisor. 8. Be patient! This process can take time, but persistence pays off. Remember, document everything. Write down who you talked to, when, and what they said. This can be super helpful if you need to follow up later. Good luck!

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

Have you tried logging in from a different device? Sometimes my account acts up on my phone but works fine on my laptop.

OP, how long has your account been locked? If its been more than 24 hours, you def need to call them directly.
