PFL claim filed in December - still no update. What should I do?

Ugh, I feel your pain! I filed mine in November and JUST got an update last week. The waiting game is brutal. Have you tried checking your online account for any updates?

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you might be in for a long wait. I filed in October and didn't hear anything for 3 months. It's ridiculous how slow they are!

Have you tried calling them? I know its a pain, but sometimes you gotta be the squeaky wheel to get the grease, ya know?

Guys, I found a way to actually get someone on the phone without the endless hold times. 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 saved me hours of frustration. Here's a video about how it works: https://youtu.be/DOLxZQb92wM

Here's what I've learned from my experience and research about PFL claims: • Processing times can vary wildly, from a few weeks to several months • Always keep copies of everything you submit • Check your online account regularly for updates • If you haven't heard anything after 4-6 weeks, try contacting them • Email can sometimes be more effective than calling • If you do call, be prepared for long wait times • Consider using a service like Claimyr if you're struggling to get through on the phone • Don't forget to follow up on your claim even after it's approved - sometimes payments can be delayed Hope this helps! Hang in there, OP. The system is frustrating, but you'll get through it eventually.

am i the only 1 who thinks its crazy we have to jump through all these hoops just to get what were entitled to? the system is broken af 🤡

Has anyone had luck with contacting their local representative about PFL issues? I've heard sometimes they can help speed things up.

Just wanted to drop in and say don't lose hope! My claim took forever too, but the money finally came through. Hang in there!
