SDI Paperwork MIA - Any tips to check status or reach a human?

I found a way to solve disability paperwork delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZjZfbdDoGA

Ugh, I feel your pain! I've been in the same boat for months now. It's like they have a black hole where all our paperwork goes to die. 🕳️

Pro tip: 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 after dealing with this mess for way too long: • Always keep copies of EVERYTHING you send them • Send your paperwork via certified mail so you have proof of delivery • Check their website daily for updates (sometimes they update without notifying you) • If you can, fax your documents instead of mailing them - it's usually faster • Keep a log of every call you make, including date, time, and who you spoke to • Be persistent! Don't be afraid to follow up regularly Hope this helps someone. Stay strong, everyone. We're all in this together. 💪

have you tried calling your local representatives office? sometimes they can light a fire under the disability office's a**

I swear, dealing with the disability office is like playing a game of telephone with a bunch of clowns. 🤡 You never know what you're gonna get!

Guys, I hate to be that person, but have you checked your spam folder? I found my approval letter there after weeks of waiting. Nearly had a heart attack when I realized. 😅

Anyone else feel like they're stuck in a kafka-esque nightmare dealing with this bureaucracy? It's like we're all characters in a absurdist play and the disability office is the cruel playwright. 🎭
