PFL claim filed months ago, back at work, still no payment. What to do?
I filed for PFL months ago and still haven't received any money. I'm already back at work and haven't heard anything about my claim. Has anyone else experienced this? What should I do to get my payment?

Ugh, I'm in the same boat. Filed in June and crickets since then. The system is so broken 🤦♂️

Yeah, but good luck getting through. I've spent hours on hold only to get disconnected 😤

Pro tip: call right when they open. Sometimes you can get through faster.

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

Sounds too good to be true. Is it legit?

Totally legit. I was skeptical too, but it saved me hours of frustration. Worth every penny imo.

Here's what you need to do: 1. Check your online account for any messages or requests for additional info 2. Call and ask about the status of your claim 3. Inquire if there are any missing documents 4. Ask for a specific timeline for processing 5. Get the name and ID of the rep you speak with 6. Follow up with an email summarizing the call Be persistent! Don't let them brush you off. Good luck!

I hate to say it, but you might need to involve your local representative. I was stuck for months until I reached out to my assemblyman's office. They got it sorted in weeks.

Hey OP, what reason did they give you for the delay when you called?

That's the thing - I haven't been able to get through to anyone on the phone. It's so frustrating!

Oof, that sucks. Definitely try that calling service someone mentioned earlier. Sounds like it could save you a headache.
