SDI payments delayed due to supplemental certification request despite doctor's letter - Help!

Ugh, I feel your pain! 😫 I went through something similar last year. Have you tried calling them? Sometimes talking to a real person can help sort things out faster.

This happened to me too! It's so annoying. I ended up having to get my doctor to send the letter again. Apparently, they 'lost' the first one. 🙄 Maybe check if that's what happened in your case?

The SDI system is such a mess rn. I've been waiting on my payments for over a month now. Seems like they're always finding new ways to delay things. Hang in there, OP!

Hey, I found a method 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 what you need to do to resolve this issue with SDI: 1. Document everything: Keep a record of all communications, including dates you sent documents and any reference numbers. 2. Re-submit the certification: Even if your doctor sent it, send it again. Use certified mail so you have proof of delivery. 3. Call persistently: Yes, it's a pain, but keep trying. Early morning or late afternoon tend to have shorter wait times. 4. Use the online portal: Sometimes you can upload documents directly, which can be faster than mail. 5. Contact your local state representative: They often have liaisons who can help with SDI issues. 6. Consider filing an appeal: If all else fails, you have the right to appeal their decision. Remember, persistence is key. Don't give up! The system is frustrating, but keep pushing until you get what you're entitled to.

have u checked ur spam folder? sometimes the notifcations end up there lol

This might sound weird, but has anyone else noticed that SDI issues seem to get worse around tax season? It's like they're trying to hold onto every penny as long as possible. 🤔
