PFL claim processing for 6 weeks - no response. What to do?

Hey everyone, I'm dealing with a frustrating situation. My paid family leave claim has been processing for 6 weeks now, and I still haven't heard anything back. Has anyone else experienced such a long wait time? I'm starting to get worried and could really use some advice on what to do next.

OP, make sure you've submitted all required documentation. Sometimes they don't tell you if something's missing and just let the claim sit there ๐Ÿ™„

Good point, I'll double-check. But how do I know if everything's there if I can't get hold of anyone? It's like a catch-22 ๐Ÿ˜ซ

EDD Paid Family Leave app pending 2+ months, old apps vanished. Help!

Hey everyone, I'm having some issues with my paid family leave application. It's been pending for over 2 months now and I can't even see the old applications anymore. I've tried submitting new ones hoping they'd get reviewed, but they're still pending too. Anyone else dealing with this? Any advice on how to get through to someone at EDD?

have u tried faxing ur application? I know it sounds old school but I heard from a friend that sometimes it gets processed faster that way

Lol, I don't even know where to find a fax machine these days. But I'm desperate enough to try anything at this point!

Just a heads up, I've heard they're super backed up due to a new system update. Might be why everythings taking so long. Doesn't make it any less frustrating tho ๐Ÿ˜‘

Hey everyone, I filed for paid family leave a few weeks ago and I'm still waiting to hear back. Anyone know how long it usually takes to get an update? I'm starting to get worried about the bills piling up. Any tips on what questions I should ask when I finally get through to someone?

Preach! ๐Ÿ™Œ It's like they're purposely making it difficult. Stay strong, we're all in this sinking ship together ๐Ÿšข

Hey OP, don't lose hope! I know it's frustrating, but keep at it. Make sure you document everything - dates you called, who you spoke to, what they said. It might come in handy if you need to escalate your case. Sending positive vibes your way! โœจ

EDD Paid Family Leave: Only received half of $12k benefit after 3 months. Help!

Hey everyone, I'm having some issues with my paid family leave benefits from EDD. I filed for 8 weeks back in January, but I've only received about half of what I'm supposed to get. Has anyone else experienced delays in getting their full benefits? I'm expecting around $12,000 total, but so far I've only gotten about $6,000. It's been a few months now and I'm starting to get worried. Any advice on how to follow up with EDD or what might be causing the delay?

Ugh, I'm in the same boat. Been waiting on my full benefits for 3 months now. This system is broken af ๐Ÿ˜ค

EDD claim from December still unpaid - what can I do?

Hey everyone, I'm really frustrated. I filed an unemployment claim back in December and I still haven't been paid. It's been over a month now. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm starting to worry because bills are piling up and I don't know what to do. Any advice would be appreciated!

Anybody else notice how they always seem to 'lose' our documents? I've had to send the same forms like 3 times now ๐Ÿ™„

Hey OP, hang in there. I know it's tough but it will get sorted eventually. In the meantime, check out local food banks if you're struggling. No shame in getting help when you need it. โค๏ธ
