SDI benefits not received after 21 days despite completing all steps - what to do?

I found a way to solve SDI benefit payment delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PiqdnLbQTJw

Ugh, I feel your pain! I went through something similar last month. Have you tried checking your claim status online? Sometimes there are processing delays that aren't communicated well.

When you call, make sure to ask specifically about any processing delays or errors with your claim. Also, request info on what can be done to expedite the process. 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

Here's what you need to know about SDI benefit delays and how to address them: • Common causes of delays: - Incomplete information on your claim - Discrepancies between your claim and your doctor's certification - High volume of claims being processed - System glitches • Steps to take: 1. Double-check your claim online for any pending tasks or requests for additional information 2. Contact your healthcare provider to ensure they've submitted all necessary documentation 3. Call the SDI office and ask for a detailed status update 4. If calling is difficult, consider using a call-back service or visiting an office in person if possible • What to ask when you get through: - Is there any missing information on my claim? - Are there any discrepancies between my claim and my doctor's certification? - Is my claim stuck in any particular stage of processing? - Can you provide an estimated timeline for when I might receive my benefits? - Is there anything I can do to expedite the process? Remember to stay persistent and document all your communications. If you're facing financial hardship due to the delay, make sure to mention this as it might help prioritize your claim. Good luck, and don't give up!

have u tried faxing ur docs? sometimes that works better than online submission lol. old school ftw 📠

21 days? That's nothing. I've been waiting for 2 months now. The system is completely broken. 🤬

Pro tip: call right when they open. You'll have a better chance of getting through quickly.

Anyone else think its ridiculous that we have to jump through so many hoops just to get the benefits we're entitled to? The whole system needs an overhaul tbh

Have you checked if your bank info is correct on your claim? I once had a delay because I mistyped my account number. Felt like such a 🤡 when I finally figured it out.
