Filed for PFL in November, still no update from EDD. What should I do?
Hey everyone, I filed for PFL back in November and I still haven't heard anything. It's been months now and I'm getting worried. Has anyone else been waiting this long for an update on their PFL status? Any advice on what I should do next?

Ugh, I feel your pain. I've been waiting since October and still radio silence from EDD. It's like they've forgotten about us or something. 🤦♂️

Same boat here. Filed in December and nada. This is getting ridiculous!

Calling? LOL good luck with that. I've tried like 50 times and can never get through. 🙄

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

Sounds too good to be true. Does it really work?

$20? That's kinda steep just to make a phone call...

I was skeptical too, but it actually worked for me. Saved me hours of frustration. Worth every penny imho

Here's what you need to do: 1. Keep all your documentation organized 2. Try calling early in the morning, right when they open 3. If you can't get through, send a message through your online account 4. Consider reaching out to your local assembly member's office. They can sometimes help push things along 5. Be patient (I know, easier said than done) Hang in there! The system is overwhelmed but they'll get to you eventually.

Welcome to bureaucracy 101. Where nothing makes sense and everything takes forever.

Have you checked your spam folder? Sometimes EDD emails end up there. Also, log into your account and see if there are any messages or requests for additional info you might have missed.

I heard they're super backlogged because of all the fraud cases they're dealing with. Doesn't make the wait any easier tho 😩
