SDI payment delayed after 3 weeks - no updates, account shows amount but no money received. What to do?

I found a way to solve disability payment delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zaBbGo0IE8

Ugh, I'm in the same boat. It's been over a month for me and still nothing. The system is so broken 😤

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. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

Here's what you need to do: 1. Double-check that you've submitted all required documents. Sometimes they need additional info but don't tell you. 2. Try calling first thing in the morning, right when they open. Be prepared to wait on hold. 3. If you can't get through, send a message through your online account. Be specific about your issue. 4. If it's been more than 3 weeks, contact your local state representative. They can sometimes expedite claims. 5. Keep a record of all your attempts to contact them. Don't give up! The system is overwhelmed, but persistence usually pays off.

have u checked ur spam folder? sometimes the updates go there lol

3 weeks? You sweet summer child. I've been waiting for 2 months now. The whole system is a joke 🤡

FYI, there was a glitch in the system last month that delayed a bunch of payments. They said they fixed it, but who knows 🤷‍♀️ Might be worth mentioning when you call

I'm going through the exact same thing right now! Filed 3 weeks ago and my account shows the benefit amount but no payments yet. It's so stressful when you're counting on this money. I've been trying to call but can't get through - the phone system just hangs up on me after being on hold forever. Has anyone had luck with the online messaging system? I'm wondering if that might be faster than trying to call.
