EDD PFL claim filed 10 days ago, no response - What to do next?

I found a way to solve unemployment claim processing delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F25htuIMXoY

To the OP, I'm sorry you're going through this stressful process. Here’s a more structured approach you might consider: First, ensure all your documents are uploaded correctly by logging into your EDD account. If everything seems in order and you're still not receiving updates, calling the EDD is necessary despite the challenge it poses. Using tools like Claimyr can be helpful, though consider it a last resort due to the cost involved. For a more cost-effective approach, try reaching out to your local assembly member for assistance — they have been known to expedite processes. Don't forget to regularly certify for your benefits every two weeks, which is crucial in preventing any delays. And lastly, while waiting, document every interaction you have with EDD for future reference. Remember, you're not alone; many are facing similar issues, and persistence is key.

Bruh, EDD is a joke rn. They're probably using a magic 8 ball to process claims 🎱🤡

Hot take: what if we all just showed up at the EDD office with lawn chairs and snacks? They can't ignore us if we're camped out front, right? 🏕️

Friendly reminder to everyone: don't forget to take care of yourselves while dealing with this mess. Eat, sleep, stay hydrated. EDD drama is temporary, but your health is important. ❤️

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 explaining it: https://youtu.be/DOLxZQb92wM

have u tried reaching out to ur local assembly members office? they can sometimes help speed things up

Hey, just a heads up - make sure you're certifying for benefits every two weeks even if you haven't heard back about your claim yet. I made that mistake and it caused a huge delay.

Plot twist: what if the real unemployment benefits were the friends we made along the way? 🤔

Have you tried calling them? Sometimes you gotta be proactive and chase them down. It sucks, but that's how the system works.

Anyone else feel like we need to start a support group for dealing with EDD stress? 😅 This stuff is seriously anxiety-inducing.

Welcome to EDD hell, my friend. You're in for a wild ride. I've been waiting for 6 weeks now, and still nothing. It's like they're playing hide and seek with our claims 🙄

Ugh, I feel your pain. I was in the same boat last month. Here's what worked for me: 1. Keep calling every day. I know it sucks, but persistence pays off. 2. Have all your paperwork ready when you do get through. 3. Ask for a specific timeline and next steps. 4. Get the name of who you talk to and a reference number for the call. 5. Follow up with an email summarizing the call (if you can find an email address). Don't give up! The system is broken, but you'll get there eventually. Good luck!

have you checked your online account? sometimes they update stuff there without notifying you
