EDD Refund Finally Processed - Any Tips for Those Still Waiting?
Hey everyone, just wanted to share some good news. I finally got my refund processed successfully! It's been a long journey dealing with EDD, but it looks like things are finally moving in the right direction. Has anyone else had any luck recently with their refunds or claims?

Congrats OP! Quick question - did you receive any notification before the refund was processed, or did it just show up?

Lucky you! I've been trying to get through to EDD for weeks with no luck. The phone lines are always busy. Any tips on how to actually talk to a human there?

I found a method that actually works 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 explaining it: https://youtu.be/DOLxZQb92wM

Wait, you have to pay to talk to EDD? That sounds sketchy af

I get why it sounds sketchy, but it's not EDD charging you. It's a third-party service that does the waiting for you. Saved me hours of frustration tbh

Can confirm, I've used this too. Totally worth the $20 imo

Glad to hear you got your refund! Quick question for anyone who knows - does the refund come as a check or direct deposit? I'm trying to figure out what to watch for.

It depends on how you set up your account. If you have direct deposit set up, it should go there. Otherwise, they'll mail a check.

Okay, I've been dealing with EDD for a while now, so here's what I've learned: ā¢ Be persistent! Don't give up if you don't hear back right away. ā¢ Double-check all your paperwork before submitting. One small error can delay everything. ā¢ Keep detailed records of all your communications with EDD. ā¢ If possible, try to get through on the phone. Sometimes talking to a real person can resolve issues faster. ā¢ Check your online account regularly for updates. ā¢ If you're really stuck, consider reaching out to your local state representative. They sometimes can help push things along. ā¢ Remember, refunds can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months. It's frustrating, but try to be patient. Hope this helps someone! We're all in this together, folks. šŖ

Quick question - how do you find out who your local state rep is?

@profile18 You can usually find your state rep by googling '[your state] find my representative' - there should be a website where you can enter your address and it'll tell you who represents you.
