PFL claim filed 3+ months ago, no payment, Money Network can't find account - Help!

I found a way to solve paid family leave payment delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQPrsCg9vH4

Ugh, I'm in the same boat. Filed for PFL 2 months ago and crickets. Called Money Network too and they had no record. It's like we're in limbo 😫

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 do: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your calls, who you spoke to, and what they said. 2. Contact your local state representative's office. They often have liaisons who can help with EDD issues. 3. File a formal complaint with EDD. Sometimes this kicks things into gear. 4. Check if your employer properly submitted your info. Sometimes the holdup is on their end. 5. If all else fails, consider contacting a labor lawyer for a consultation. Don't give up! The system is frustrating but persistence usually pays off.

pro tip: sometimes the online portal shows different info than what the phone reps can see. Have you checked your account online?

I had a similar issue last year. Turns out there was a typo in my SSN on the application. Double-check all your info!

this is why we need ubi smh. the bureaucracy is a joke

Have you tried reaching out on social media? Sometimes tweeting at EDD or posting on their FB page gets a faster response. Worth a shot!

Congrats on the new baby! Sorry you're dealing with this stress during what should be a special time. Hang in there!
