SDI payments stopped since Nov 21 - No explanation from EDD. Help!

Ugh, that sucks! Have you tried certifying for benefits recently? Sometimes if you miss a certification, it can cause a delay in payments. Also, has anything changed with your employment status or eligibility?

I've been in the same boat, mate. SDI can be a real pain sometimes. Have you tried calling them directly? It might take a while to get through, but it's worth a shot.

Omg, 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

This is ridiculous! The system is so broken. We shouldn't have to jump through hoops just to get the benefits we're entitled to. Has anyone tried contacting their local representative about this? Maybe if enough of us complain, something will change.

Hey there, I work in HR and deal with SDI claims often. Here's what you need to do: 1. Double-check your claim status online. Make sure there are no pending forms or additional info needed. 2. Verify your mailing address is correct. Sometimes payments get returned if the address is wrong. 3. Call the SDI office directly. Be persistent. Try early in the morning or late afternoon when it's less busy. 4. If you can't get through, try contacting them through their online portal or send a secure message. 5. Check if your bank info is correct for direct deposit. 6. If all else fails, consider reaching out to your local state representative's office. They can sometimes help expedite claims. Remember, there might be delays due to the holiday season or end-of-year processing. Don't panic, but do stay proactive. Good luck!

have u tried turning it off and on again? 🤣 jk jk. but srsly, sometimes the simplest solutions work. maybe try logging out and back in to ur account?

I had a similar issue last year. Turns out there was a glitch in their system that was affecting a bunch of claims. It took them like 2 months to sort it out, but I eventually got all my backpay. Hang in there!
