PFL Application Ghosted - No Response After a Month. What to Do?

I found a way to solve paid family leave application delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZavEci-yr-k

Ugh, I feel ya. The whole system is a mess rn. I had to wait like 2 months before I heard anything back. Have you tried calling them? It's a pain, but sometimes that's the only way to get answers.

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 know about Paid Family Leave (PFL) applications: 1. Processing time: It typically takes about 2 weeks for them to process your application. 2. Additional forms: Make sure you've submitted the DE 2501F form. 3. Employer verification: Your employer needs to complete their portion. 4. Medical certification: Ensure your healthcare provider has submitted the necessary medical certification. 5. Follow up: If you haven't heard back after 3 weeks, try to contact them. 6. Online account: Check your online account for updates or messages. 7. Reapplying: Generally, you don't need to reapply unless instructed to do so. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.

have you checked your spam folder? sometimes their emails end up there lol

Oof, reapplying might've reset your place in line. 😬 I'd def try to get someone on the phone to sort it out. Good luck!

Anyone else feel like we're living in a kafka novel trying to deal with this stuff? 🤡
