How to cancel/correct inaccurate PFL claim? Can't reach EDD!

I found a way to solve correcting paid family leave claim, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBIhnQPgpvo

Ugh, I feel your pain! The system is such a mess. I had to cancel my claim last year and it was a nightmare. Have you tried faxing them? Sometimes that works better than calling.

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

Here's what you need to do to cancel or correct your paid family leave claim: 1. Document everything: Write down all the inaccuracies in your original claim. 2. Prepare a written statement: Explain why you need to cancel or correct your claim. 3. Gather supporting documents: Any proof that supports your need for cancellation or correction. 4. Contact EDD: Call their Paid Family Leave number (1-877-238-4373) or use the online portal if available. 5. Be persistent: You might need to try multiple times to get through. 6. Follow up in writing: Send a certified letter with your request and documentation. 7. Keep records: Note down all your communication attempts, including dates and times. Remember, patience is key. The system is overwhelmed, but keep trying. Good luck!

have u tried going to the office in person? sometimes face-to-face is the only way to get things done w/ these bureaucrats 🙄

I'm in the same boat rn. Filed last week and realized I messed up some dates. This whole system is a joke tbh. Good luck to both of us! 🍀

Pro tip: call right when they open. I always get through within 15 minutes if I call at 8:01 AM.
