Has anyone tried reaching out through social media? I've heard some people have had luck getting responses that way.
I tried tweeting at them but got crickets. Maybe I'm just not important enough π€·ββοΈ
Facebook messaging worked for me! Got a response within a day. Worth a shot if you're still stuck.

EDD claim from March still 'Pending Processing' - no payment received. Help!
I filed an unemployment claim back in March and still haven't received any payment. It's been over two months now! The status just says 'Pending Processing'. I've tried calling the EDD office multiple times but can't get through to anyone. Has anyone else experienced such a long delay? Any advice on how to speed up the process or at least get some information about when I might expect to receive benefits?

Didn't work for me :( Still getting the busy signal. Guess I'll try again tomorrow
EDD claim info - How to check benefit amounts and payment timelines?
Hey everyone, I'm trying to get some info about my unemployment claim. Does anyone know how to check benefit amounts or when payments are supposed to come through? I've been waiting forever and can't seem to get a straight answer from anyone. Any tips would be appreciated!

Don't forget to ask about partial leave options! You might be able to work part-time and still get some benefits. Could help stretch out your time with the baby.

Anybody else notice how the hold music is always some weird jazz fusion? Like, who picked that? π·π€
