SDI Payment Delay: Filed Weeks Ago, Still No Money. What to Do?

Ugh, I feel your pain. I went through something similar last year. Have you tried calling them? It's a pain, but sometimes that's the only way to get answers.

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

Have you checked your online account? Sometimes they update info there before sending out notices.

This is why the system is so messed up. People are waiting weeks for money they need NOW. It's not like bills just stop coming, right? 🤬

Ok, let me break this down for you. I've been through this rodeo before, and here's what you need to do: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your calls, emails, and any correspondence. 2. Check your online account daily. Sometimes info gets updated there first. 3. If you haven't already, send a follow-up email or fax. Include your claim number and all relevant details. 4. Reach out to your local state representative. They often have liaisons who can help push things along. 5. If you're really in a bind, consider contacting local legal aid. They might be able to advise or assist. 6. Don't give up! Keep calling, even if it's frustrating. The squeaky wheel gets the grease. Remember, you're not alone in this. The system is overwhelmed, but persistence usually pays off. Hang in there!

have u tried sending a carrier pigeon with ur claim info? might be faster than waiting for them to process it lmao 🐦📜

Ive been waiting 3 months for my claim to be processed. This is rediculous. How are we supposed to survive????

Just a heads up, I heard they're implementing a new system next month that's supposed to speed things up. Might be worth waiting it out if you can.

guys, i think we need to organize and do something about this. whos up for a protest at the state capitol? 👊
