EDD Disability: Paperwork sent a month ago, no response. What now?

I found a way to solve EDD disability paperwork delay issues, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFlwqXkUcao

Ugh, I feel your pain! I went through something similar last year. It's so frustrating when you're left in limbo like that. Have you tried calling them? I know it's a pain, but sometimes that's the only way to get answers.

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've learned from dealing with EDD for way too long: 1. Always keep copies of EVERYTHING you send them. 2. Send important docs via certified mail so you have proof of delivery. 3. If you haven't heard back in 2-3 weeks, start calling. 4. Use their online portal to check your claim status if possible. 5. If all else fails, contact your local state representative's office. They can sometimes help push things through. Hope this helps! Hang in there, the system is a mess but you'll get through it eventually.

have u tried faxing them? sometimes that works better than mail. also check ur spam folder just incase they emailed u

Oof, classic EDD move. They're probably using your paperwork as coffee coasters by now 🙄 But seriously, don't wait any longer. Call them ASAP and be prepared to be on hold for approximately 84 years.

I had the same issue last month. Turns out they had my paperwork but it was under the wrong SSN (they transposed two numbers). Definitely call and check. It's a pain but better than waiting forever.

Anyone else feel like we need a support group for dealing with EDD? 😅 This stuff is more stressful than the reason we're applying for benefits in the first place!
