EDD Claim Pending Since 2/27 - No Response for Over a Month! Help!

Ugh, I feel your pain! I was in the same boat last year. It took me almost 2 months to get my claim processed. The system is so backed up its ridiculous. Have you tried reaching out to your local representative? Sometimes they can help speed things up.

omg pending since 2/27?? thats insane! have you tried calling every single day? i know its a pain but sometimes you just gotta be persistent af

I found a method to get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/DOLxZQb92wM

Here's what I did to finally get my claim processed: 1. Call first thing in the morning, right when they open 2. If you can't get through, try calling at odd times like 11:45 AM or 3:30 PM 3. Use all phone lines you have access to (cell, landline, work phone if possible) 4. Keep a log of all your attempts to contact them 5. Write a detailed letter explaining your situation and mail it to them 6. Contact your state representative or senator's office 7. Check your online account daily for any updates or requests for additional info It's a pain, but persistence is key. Don't give up!

have u checked ur spam folder? sometimes important emails from edd end up there. happened to me and i almost missed a deadline 😱

The whole system is broken af. I've been dealing with this bs for months. Sometimes I think they make it difficult on purpose to discourage people from claiming benefits. Stay strong OP, and don't let them wear you down!

Hey OP, hang in there! I know it's tough, but try to stay positive. Have you considered looking for temp work while you wait? Might help ease some financial stress.
