PFL Final Payment Delay After RTW - What to Do?
Hey everyone, I'm in a bit of a pickle here. I finished my Paid Family Leave and went back to work on January 20th, but I still haven't gotten my final PFL payment. It's been a few weeks now and I'm starting to get worried. Has anyone else dealt with this? Any advice on what I should do or who I should contact? I'm not sure if there's something I'm missing or if this is just how long it usually takes. Thanks in advance for any help!

Have you checked if there were any holidays or processing delays? Sometimes that can slow things down.
EDD Benefits Delayed 3+ Months - Anyone Else Stuck in Limbo?
Anyone else dealing with crazy long delays for their benefits? I've been waiting for 3 months now and still nothing. This is getting ridiculous. How are we supposed to survive like this?

Has anyone tried going to their local EDD office in person? I'm thinking of giving that a shot since nothing else seems to be working.
I tried that last month. Waited in line for 3 hours only to be told they couldn't help me and I needed to call the main number. Total waste of time. 😤
Depends on your local office. Some are more helpful than others. Might be worth a shot if you're out of options.

PFL claim stuck for 6 weeks, previous SDI claim still open - Help!
Hey everyone, I'm having an issue with my disability claim and PFL. I submitted my PFL claim 6 weeks ago, but it hasn't been processed yet. I noticed my previous disability claim is still showing as open even though it has an end date. Could this be why my PFL claim is stuck? Has anyone else dealt with something similar? Any advice on what to say when I call them?

has anyone else noticed that the website is always "under maintenance" when you actually need to use it? 🙄 like, get it together already!
OMG YES! It's always down on weekends too, when I actually have time to deal with this stuff. So annoying!

Has anyone heard about recent changes to the paid family leave process? I thought they were supposed to be streamlining things, but it seems worse than ever.

I read something about new software being implemented, but who knows if that's actually helping or just causing more problems 🤷♂️

My claim was stuck for 3 months! I finally got it resolved by going to my state representative's office. They have liaisons who can cut through the red tape. Might be worth a shot if nothing else works.
