SDI claim stuck - no payment or updates. What to do?

I found a way to solve disability claim payment delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D01CIwZocFk

Ugh, I feel your pain. I was in the same boat a few months ago. Here's what I did: 1. Keep calling every day, multiple times if possible. It's annoying but persistence pays off. 2. Check your online account for any updates or messages. 3. Make sure all your documents are submitted correctly. 4. If you have a disability case worker, try contacting them directly. 5. Consider reaching out to your local state representative's office. They can sometimes help push things along. Hang in there! The system is frustrating but you'll get through it eventually.

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

have you checked your mail carefully? sometimes they send important notices that look like junk mail. i almost threw mine away by accident lol

This happened to me too! Turns out there was a glitch in their system and my claim got stuck in limbo. Keep calling and ask them to escalate your case to a supervisor. Good luck!

pro tip: call right when they open in the morning. youll have a better chance of getting through before the lines get jammed 👍

Have you tried reaching out on social media? Sometimes tweeting at them or messaging on Facebook can get a response. Worth a shot!

OMG I'm dealing with the exact same thing rn 😭 It's been 2 months and radio silence. This system is a joke!

Friendly reminder to everyone: document EVERYTHING. Every call, every letter, every online message. It'll help if you need to escalate or appeal later.

unpopular opinion: maybe try going to the office in person if you can? i know its a pain but sometimes face-to-face gets better results
