lol good luck. i gave up trying to check my status. figure they'll let me know if theres a problem 🤷♂️
Has anyone else noticed that the online status doesn't always match what they tell you on the phone? I'm so confused about whats actually going on with my claim.
Pro tip: if you can, try calling right when they open. I've had better luck getting through quickly that way.
PSA: There's a new online portal for checking claim status. It's not perfect, but it's better than nothing. Google 'EDD claim status portal' and you should find it.
Hey, former EDD employee here. For address verification, they usually want to see two different official documents with your name and address. Utility bills, bank statements, or government mail (like voter registration) work best. Avoid using handwritten mail or personal letters. Hope this helps!

This might sound crazy, but has anyone tried going to an EDD office in person? I'm thinking of driving to one tomorrow cuz I'm so fed up with the phone system.

•I tried that last month. Waited in line for 3 hours only to be told they couldn't help with PFL claims in person. Total waste of time 😤
