EDD claim stuck on 'processing' for 2 months, no income, bills piling up. Help!

Ugh, I feel your pain OP. I was in the same boat a few months ago. It's ridiculous how long they make us wait! Have you tried calling them? It's a nightmare to get through, 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

Two months is way too long! Have you tried reaching out to your local representative? Sometimes they can help push things along. Worth a shot!

Listen up, folks. I've been through this rodeo before, and here's what you need to do: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your attempts to contact them. 2. Send a written request for an update. Use certified mail so you have proof they received it. 3. Contact your state representative or senator. They often have staff dedicated to helping with these issues. 4. If you're really in a bind, consider applying for emergency assistance through local charities or your county's social services. 5. Don't give up! Keep calling, keep pushing. The squeaky wheel gets the grease. Remember, you're not alone in this. The system is overwhelmed, but that doesn't mean you should suffer. Stay strong and keep fighting!

have u checked ur spam folder? sometimes important emails end up there. just a thought

This whole system is a joke. They expect us to live on air while they take their sweet time? It's a disgrace! 🤬

Hey OP, hang in there. I know it's tough, but it will get sorted eventually. In the meantime, have you looked into any temporary work or gig jobs? Might help tide you over until this gets resolved.

Plot twist: what if we all showed up at their office? They cant ignore us then! 😂
