Ugh, I feel your pain! I've been dealing with SDI delays too. Have you tried calling them? It's a nightmare to get through, but sometimes that's the only way to get answers.

I had a similar issue last year. Here's what worked for me: 1. Double-check all your forms for errors. Even small mistakes can cause delays. 2. Contact your doctor's office to make sure they submitted everything correctly. 3. If possible, fax a follow-up letter to SDI explaining your situation. 4. Keep a log of all your calls and correspondence. Hang in there! It's frustrating, but it'll get sorted out eventually.

have you checked your claim status online? sometimes they update it there before they actually send out payments

This happened to me too! Turns out there was a glitch in their system that was causing delays for a bunch of people. Keep calling and don't give up!

Have you considered reaching out to your local state representative? Sometimes they can help expedite these things when the system is being slow.

OMG I'm in the exact same boat!!! 🚣‍♀️ It's been 6 weeks for me and still nothing. This system is such a joke. How are we supposed to survive??

Pro tip: If you can't get through on the phone, try sending a message through their online portal. Sometimes you can get a response that way without the endless hold times.

I hate to be that guy, but have you double-checked that you're eligible for continued benefits? Sometimes they cut you off without clear communication.

Guys, I found a solution that actually works! There's this service called Claimyr (claimyr.com) that calls SDI for you, waits on hold, and then connects you when an agent is available. It costs $20, but it saved me days of frustration. Check out this video: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

This might sound weird, but have you tried faxing your forms? Sometimes the old school methods work better with these outdated systems lol

Hey Landon! I went through something similar earlier this year - had a 5-week gap in payments while they processed my continuing claim. The frustrating part is they don't tell you what's happening behind the scenes. A few things that helped me: - Called first thing in the morning (8 AM sharp) - seemed to have shorter wait times - Asked specifically about the status of both forms (DE2525 and DE2593) when I finally got through - Requested they put notes in my file about the call The good news is that when it finally got resolved, I received all the back payments in one lump sum. It's stressful waiting, but don't lose hope! The system is slow but it usually works out in the end. Keep us posted on how it goes! 🤞
