EDD online application keeps rejecting my driver's license info - help!

I found a way to solve driver's license application rejection issues, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHz7-N2OdP0

Ugh, I had the same issue last week. So frustrating! Have you double-checked that you're entering everything exactly as it appears on your license? Sometimes even a tiny typo can cause it to reject.

The online system is such a joke. I swear they make it difficult on purpose to discourage people from applying. 🙄

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

Have you tried clearing your browser cache and cookies? Sometimes that can help with weird website issues.

Ok, so here's what worked for me after days of trying: 1. Use Google Chrome (it seems to work better than other browsers) 2. Clear your cache and cookies 3. Try entering your info in ALL CAPS 4. If you have any special characters in your name (like a hyphen), try removing them 5. Make sure your address matches EXACTLY what's on your license (including abbreviations) 6. If all else fails, try accessing the site during off-peak hours (like early morning) Hope this helps someone! It's a pain, but keep trying. You'll get through eventually!

Anyone else think its ridiculous that we have to jump through all these hoops just to file a claim? The system is broken af 😤

Pro tip: if you're really stuck, try contacting your local state representative's office. They often have direct lines to the unemployment office and can help push things through.
