PFL claim pending since January - no updates. Help!

Ugh, I feel your pain. I was in the same boat last year. Have you tried calling them? Sometimes that's the only way to get any real answers.

January?! That's ridiculous. Have you checked if there are any missing documents or issues with your claim? Sometimes they don't tell you if something's wrong and just let it sit there.

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

The whole system is broken. I've been dealing with PFL issues for months too. It's like they want us to give up. 🤬

Here's what I've learned from my experience with PFL claims: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your calls, emails, and any communication with them. 2. Check your online account regularly for updates or requests for additional info. 3. If possible, send any documents via certified mail so you have proof of delivery. 4. Reach out to your local state representative. Sometimes they can help push things along. 5. Be persistent but polite when you do get someone on the phone. They're probably overwhelmed too. 6. Consider filing a formal complaint if it's been an unreasonable amount of time. Hope this helps! Hang in there, OP. The system is frustrating, but don't give up.

have u tried faxing them? I know it sounds old school but sometimes it works lol

OP, check ur spam folder. Sometimes important emails end up there. Happened to me and I almost missed a deadline 😱
