I found a way to solve retroactive baby bonding claim filing, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FVL41DaCuI

Ugh, been there done that. It's a pain in the butt, but it's possible. Make sure you have all your dates and paperwork ready when you call. They'll probably ask for proof of birth and employment info. Good luck!

I found a way to actually 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

Pro tip: When you call, be super nice to the agent. They deal with angry people all day. If you're friendly, they might go the extra mile to help you out. worked for me! 😊

Retroactive pay for baby bonding? Good luck with that 🙄 The system is so broken, I've been trying to get my regular unemployment for months. It's a joke.

Here's what you need to know about retroactive baby bonding claims: • You can typically claim benefits up to 30 days before your application date • You'll need to provide proof of the child's birth or placement (birth certificate or adoption papers) • Employment verification is crucial - have pay stubs or W-2 forms ready • Be prepared to explain why you didn't apply earlier • There's a maximum benefit period, usually 6-8 weeks depending on your state • Benefits are usually a percentage of your normal wages When you call: 1. Be polite but persistent 2. Take notes during the call 3. Get the agent's name and ID if possible 4. Ask about the appeals process if denied Remember, rules can vary by state, so double-check your local regulations. Good luck!

lol good luck getting anyone on the phone. I've been trying for weeks. It's easier to win the lottery at this point 🤡

Anyone know if this applies to adoptive parents too? Asking for a friend

Just went thru this last month. Heres what worked for me: 1. Gathered all my docs 2. Wrote a letter explaining the delay 3. Called 50 times till I got thru 4. Cried a little (jk... maybe) 5. Finally got approved! Dont give up!
