SDI registration error: Driver's license already linked to another account. Help!
Hey everyone, I'm having a frustrating issue with my SDI registration. When I try to register, it says my driver's license is already linked to another account. Has anyone else run into this problem? Any advice on how to fix it? I'm not sure what to do and really need to get this sorted out.

Ugh, that sucks! I had a similar issue last year. You'll need to call them and explain the situation. Be prepared for a long wait time tho ๐

Long wait time is an understatement lol. I was on hold for 3 hours last week ๐

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

Sounds too good to be true. Is this legit?

Yeah, it's legit. I was skeptical at first too, but it saved me hours of frustration. Worth every penny imo

This happened to me too! Turns out someone had used my license number by mistake. Here's what you need to do: 1. Call the SDI office (be prepared for a long wait) 2. Explain the situation clearly 3. Ask them to verify your identity using other info (SSN, address, etc.) 4. Request they unlink your license from the incorrect account 5. Have them help you set up a new account It took me a couple calls, but they eventually sorted it out. Good luck!

Thank you so much for the detailed steps! This is really helpful. Did they give you any trouble about unlinking the license?

Have you tried creating an account with a different form of ID? Sometimes that works and then you can link your license later.

Oof, been there done that. It's a pain but you gotta call them. Pro tip: have all your docs ready before you call. They'll ask for everything under the sun ๐
