PFL Computation Received but No Payment - What to Do?
I filed for paid family leave and got the computation, but still no money. Anyone else dealing with this? It's been weeks and I'm getting worried. Any advice on what to do next or who to contact?

Ugh, I'm in the same boat. Filed like a month ago and crickets since then. The waiting game is killing me 😫

•A month? That's rough. Have you tried calling them? I heard sometimes that can speed things up.

•Pro tip: call right when they open. I got through after only 30 mins on hold that way!

Here's what worked for me: 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. Check out this video for more info: https://youtu.be/DOLxZQb92wM

•Sounds sketchy. Is this legit? $20 seems steep just to make a phone call.

•I get the skepticism, but it's totally legit. Saved me hours of frustration. Worth every penny imo.

•How long did it take for them to get someone on the line?

•It took about 2 hours, but I didn't have to sit there listening to hold music. They just called me when an agent was ready.

Make sure you've submitted all required docs. I thought I was done but turns out I missed uploading proof of relationship. Double check everything!

Have you checked your claim status online? Sometimes there's more info there that can help explain the holdup.

•Yeah, I've been checking daily. It just says 'pending' with no other details. So frustrating!

•Oof, that sucks. Might be worth reaching out to your local rep. They sometimes can light a fire under EDD's a**.

I swear the system is designed to make us give up. Been dealing with this nonsense for months. Stay strong OP, and keep pushing!

OK, let me break this down for you. I've been through this rodeo before and here's what you need to do: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your calls, emails, and online status checks. 2. Double-check your application. Make sure you didn't miss any required documents or fields. 3. Call early and often. Best times are right when they open or just after lunch. 4. If calling fails, try reaching out via social media. Sometimes their Twitter team is more responsive. 5. Contact your local state representative. They can often expedite claims. 6. Be patient but persistent. The system is overloaded, but squeaky wheel gets the grease. 7. If all else fails, consider filing a formal complaint with the labor board. Remember, you're entitled to this benefit. Don't let the bureaucracy wear you down. Good luck!

Have you tried faxing your documents? I know it sounds ancient, but sometimes it gets processed faster that way.
