SDI claim still pending after weeks - how long did yours take to process?

I found a way to solve long disability claim processing times, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Xqbn0_uLLs

Ugh, I feel ya. I filed mine like 3 months ago and still nothing. The waiting game is brutal 😫

I actually found a way 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

Pro tip: make sure all your docs are in order. They'll use any excuse to delay your claim. Double check everything before submitting!

I've been waiting for 2 months now. Starting to get really worried about bills piling up. Anyone know if there's a way to expedite the process?

Okay, let me break this down for y'all based on my experience and what I've learned: 1. Processing times vary wildly. I've seen anywhere from 2 weeks to 6 months. 2. Make sure your application is 100% complete. Any missing info will delay things. 3. If you have a critical financial need, you can request expedited processing. Call and explain your situation. 4. Keep all your medical documentation organized and ready. They might ask for more info. 5. If you haven't heard anything after 30 days, definitely follow up. 6. Consider using the online portal if you haven't already. Sometimes it's faster than paper forms. 7. If all else fails, contact your state representative or senator. They can often help. Hang in there, everyone. The system is frustrating, but don't give up!

lol watch them deny my claim after making me wait 4 months 🙃

Has anyone tried faxing their documents instead of mailing? I heard it might be faster but idk

I'm about ready to camp outside their office until someone helps me. This is rediculous!
