PFL Claim Stuck in 'Pending Processing' - Need Help Removing Second Claim

Ugh, I feel your pain! I went through something similar last year. It's so frustrating when you need the money and they just leave you hanging. Have you tried calling them? Sometimes that can help speed things up.

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone! I used this site called claimyr.com - it's a calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, and then sends the call to your phone when a live agent picks up. It costs $20, but it worked for me. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/DOLxZQb92wM

About that second claim - you should definitely try to get that removed ASAP. Having multiple claims can really mess things up and delay the whole process. When you finally get through to someone, make sure to mention that right away!

The whole system is broken af 🤡 I've been dealing with this nonsense for months. They need to hire more people or update their tech or SOMETHING because this is ridiculous

Here's what I've learned from my experience with PFL claims: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your calls, emails, and submitted documents. 2. Be persistent. Call regularly (at least once a week) for updates. 3. Use their online portal if available. Sometimes you can see more detailed status info there. 4. If possible, get your employer involved. They can sometimes expedite things. 5. Consider reaching out to your local state representative. They often have contacts in these departments. 6. For the second claim, explain it was submitted in error and ask for it to be cancelled. 7. If all else fails, file a formal complaint. This can sometimes get things moving. Hang in there! It's a frustrating process, but keep at it. You'll get through eventually.

have u checked ur spam folder? sometimes important emails from them end up there. just a thought!

I heard they just updated their system last month. Maybe that's causing delays? Anyone else notice longer processing times recently?
