PFL application stuck - what to do next?
Hey everyone, I'm having some trouble with my paid family leave application. I submitted everything but now I'm stuck and not sure what to do next. Has anyone else dealt with this? What did you do to get it resolved?

Ugh, paid family leave can be such a headache! I went through this last year. What exactly is the issue you're facing? Did they deny your claim or are you just waiting to hear back?

ā¢Thanks for responding! They haven't denied it, but I haven't heard anything in weeks. I'm getting worried because I need the money soon.

ā¢Ah gotcha. Yeah, the waiting game is the worst. Have you tried calling them? Sometimes that's the only way to get answers.

I feel your pain, OP. The system is so broken. I had to wait 3 months for my claim to be processed. It's ridiculous how they expect people to survive without income for so long.

Pro tip: keep calling every single day. I know it sucks, but persistence is key. I finally got through after two weeks of daily calls. Don't give up!

ā¢Thanks for the advice! I'll keep trying. Did you call at any specific time of day that seemed to work better?

ā¢I had the best luck calling right when they opened in the morning. Set an alarm and be ready to dial the second they open!

Hey, 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. Check out this video for more info: https://youtu.be/DOLxZQb92wM

ā¢Sounds too good to be true. Has anyone else tried this? Kinda skeptical about paying for something like that...

ā¢Wait, you have to pay to talk to a government agency? That's messed up. š¤

ā¢I get the skepticism, but it honestly saved me so much time and frustration. The $20 was worth it to finally get my issue resolved. Just sharing what worked for me!

Here's what I learned from my paid family leave experience: ⢠Document everything! Keep copies of all forms you submit ⢠Follow up regularly via phone and email ⢠If possible, submit your application in person at a local office ⢠Know your rights - familiarize yourself with the laws and regulations ⢠Don't be afraid to escalate to a supervisor if you're not getting help ⢠Reach out to your local representative's office if you hit a wall Stay persistent and don't give up. The system can be frustrating, but you'll get through it!

Unpopular opinion: the system works fine if you just follow the instructions carefully. I had zero issues with my claim. š¤·āāļø
