PFL application stuck in limbo for months - no response from EDD. Help!
I've been waiting for months to get my paid family leave application approved. I've sent in everything they asked for, but still nothing has happened. I've called so many times and no one ever answers. This is causing a lot of stress for my family. Has anyone else dealt with this? Any advice on how to get through to someone or speed up the process?

PFL Extension Form Confusion - EDD Says Wrong Form Submitted, NP Can't Find Correct One
Hey everyone, I'm having trouble with my PFL extension. The doctor/NP submitted a form, but EDD says it's the wrong one. Now my NP can't find the correct form. It's so confusing and I've been waiting forever. Anyone else deal with this? Any advice on how to get the right form or what to do next?

Quick question - are you sure its a PFL extension and not transitioning from SDI to PFL? Those require different forms and its easy to mix them up.
Oh, I didn't even think of that! I'll double-check. Thanks for bringing it up!
Submitted supporting docs to EDD - what's next and how long is the wait?
Hey everyone, I just wanted to check if anyone else is in the same boat as me. I sent in some supporting documents they asked for and I'm wondering what's next. Has anyone gone through this process recently? How long did it take for them to get back to you after submitting the docs? I'm getting a bit anxious waiting for the next steps.

Am I the only one who thinks this whole system is designed to make us give up? 🤔 It's like they're hoping we'll just forget about it if they ignore us long enough.
Preach! 🙌 I've been saying this for months. It's a total clown show 🤡
Nah, I think it's just underfunded and overwhelmed. Still sucks for us tho

Pro tip: if you get through to someone, ask for their direct extension or email. Makes follow-ups way easier.

Tinfoil hat time: maybe they do? 🤔 Less payouts = more money for them
