PFL application approved but no updates for 6+ weeks - EDD delays?

I found a way to solve EDD claim processing delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=547IKNAuITw

Ugh, the EDD is such a mess! I had a similar experience last year. It took them almost 3 months to process my claim after I got that initial approval letter. Have you tried calling them? Good luck getting through tho 🙄

I found a method to 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: 1. Keep all your documentation organized. Make copies of everything. 2. Try calling early in the morning or late afternoon. Those are usually less busy times. 3. If you can't get through on the phone, send a message through your online account. 4. Consider contacting your local assembly member's office. They can sometimes help push things along. 5. Be patient but persistent. The system is overwhelmed, but your claim will be processed eventually. Remember, your benefits will be backdated to when you were eligible, so you won't lose money due to their delays. Hang in there!

lol welcome to the wonderful world of EDD 🤡 where everything's made up and the timelines don't matter

Have you checked your online account? Sometimes they update info there without sending a notification.

6 weeks? You're still in for a long wait, buddy. I'm going on 3 months now. This system is beyond broken.
