EDD messed up my baby's DOB on PFL application - worried about payment delays

Ugh, dealing with EDD is always a headache. I had a similar issue last year. Call them ASAP and explain the situation. Make sure you have your baby's correct birth certificate handy when you call. 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

Listen up, cause I've been down this road before. Here's what you need to do: • Call EDD first thing in the morning, right when they open. Less wait time. • Have all your docs ready - application number, baby's correct birth certificate, your ID. • Be polite but firm. Explain the situation clearly. • Ask for a confirmation number or email for the correction. • Follow up in writing too - cover all your bases. • Keep calling if you don't see the change in a few days. Remember, squeaky wheel gets the grease. Don't let up until it's fixed!

have u tried checking ur status online? sometimes its faster than calling

I swear, the EDD system is held together with duct tape and prayers 🤡 Good luck, OP!

Pro tip: if you can't get through on the main line, try calling one of their auxiliary numbers and ask to be transferred. Worked for me!

Am I the only one who's never had issues with EDD? Always got my stuff sorted quickly 🤷‍♂️
