SDI Claim Pending for Weeks - Any Advice to Speed Up Process?

Ugh, I feel your pain. I've been waiting on my SDI claim for over a month now. It's so frustrating! Have you tried calling them? I've heard some people have had luck getting through and getting updates that way.

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

Here's what I've learned from my experience with SDI claims: 1. Be patient. Unfortunately, long wait times are common. 2. Double-check all your paperwork. Any small error can cause delays. 3. If you can get through on the phone, be polite but persistent. 4. Keep a log of all your attempts to contact them. 5. Consider reaching out to your local state representative's office. They can sometimes help expedite things. Hope this helps! Good luck with your claim.

have u checked ur online account? sometimes they update stuff there b4 they send anything in the mail

I'm in the same boat, friend. Filed 3 weeks ago and still nothing. This whole system is a joke. 🤡

Anyone else notice that claims seem to be taking way longer since COVID? I swear it used to be faster before the pandemic hit.

Hot take: what if we all showed up at the SDI office in person? They can't ignore us then! Who's with me? 😤✊
