SDI Payment Delay: How Long for CA EDD Disability Checks to Arrive?

I found a way to solve disability payment delay issues, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAZyqM39g24

Have you checked your online account? Sometimes they update the status there before sending out payments.

In my experience, it can take anywhere from 2-6 weeks after approval. But that's just me. The system is so backed up rn its ridiculous 🙄

Have you considered reaching out to a disability advocate? They can sometimes help navigate the system and speed things up.

While services like Claimyr do provide a solution, it's important to remember they come at a cost and should be used as a last resort. For those who can't afford the fee, persistence and utilizing free resources are key. Daily attempts at calling, setting up online accounts, and contacting local representatives are all critical steps. Also, consider filing a complaint if the wait is excessively long, as this can sometimes prompt action.

am i the only 1 who thinks this whole system is a joke? like, we pay into it our whole lives and then when we need it, its all 'sorry, were backed up' smh 🤡

Listen up, folks. I've been through this rodeo before, so here's the deal: • First, double-check that all your paperwork is in order. Any missing docs can delay things. • Set up that online account if you haven't already. It's a game-changer. • If you're really in a bind, reach out to your local representative's office. They can sometimes expedite things. • Keep a paper trail of EVERYTHING. Every call, every letter, every email. • Don't be afraid to be a squeaky wheel. The system is overloaded, but persistence pays off. Remember, the typical timeline is 2-6 weeks, but with COVID and everything, all bets are off. Hang in there, and don't be afraid to ask for help if you're really struggling.

Just a heads up, make sure you're budgeting carefully. Even when approved, payments can be inconsistent. Don't wanna leave you up a creek without a paddle!

Yo, 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. Check out this video: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

Ugh, I feel ya. The waiting game is the worst. Have you tried calling their hotline? Sometimes you can get more info that way.

Hey OP, hang in there! We're all in the same boat. This too shall pass. Sending good vibes your way! ❤️

idk if this helps, but I got my payment exactly 31 days after approval. Felt like forever tho lol
