SDI payments not received - What to do when you're stuck waiting?

I found a way to solve SDI payment delays and issues, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T80eqkav8Hs

Ugh, I'm in the same boat. It's been weeks and still nothing. The system is so broken 😤

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 online account? Sometimes they update info there before sending anything out.

Make sure all your paperwork is in order. I had a delay because I forgot to submit one form. Double check everything!

Here's what I've learned from my experience with SDI payments: 1. Be persistent: Keep calling and checking your online account regularly. 2. Document everything: Keep a log of all your attempts to contact them, including dates and times. 3. Check your mail carefully: Sometimes important notices can look like junk mail. 4. Reach out to your local representative: They might be able to help push things along. 5. Join SDI Facebook groups: There's often good info and support there. 6. Consider using a calling service: As mentioned above, it can save time. 7. Be prepared when you do get through: Have all your info ready. Hang in there, OP. It's a frustrating process, but you'll get there!

Anyone else notice that the payment dates on the website don't match when you actually get the money? So confusing 🤔

Pro tip: if you can, set up direct deposit. It's way faster than waiting for checks in the mail.
