Payment not received: EDD issue beyond delay or incorrect amount - Help!

Hey everyone, I'm having a problem with my payment. It's been a while and I still haven't received it. This isn't just a delay or wrong amount issue, it's something else entirely. Has anyone else experienced this? Any advice on what I should do next?

SDI claim pending - Called wrong number? Need help reaching correct department

I called SDI about my pending claim and the lady said I called the wrong number. Has anyone else had this happen? I'm so frustrated with this whole process. Any advice on how to get through to the right department?

have u tried faxing them? I know it sounds old school but sometimes it works when the phones are jammed

Faxing? What year is it? 😂 But seriously, I'll give it a shot if nothing else works. Thanks!

Need help getting EDD income info - best method?

Hey everyone, I need some help getting income information from EDD. Has anyone gone through this process recently? What's the best way to get this info?

Has anyone had luck getting through to EDD via social media? I've seen some people mention tweeting at them.

I tried that once. They just replied with a link to their FAQ page 🙄

Same here. Seems like its just a bot responding, not real help.

PSA: If you're having trouble with EDD, contact your state representative's office! They often have liaisons who can help cut through the red tape.

This! 👆 My assemblyman's office got my issue resolved in a week after I spent months getting nowhere with EDD directly.

EDD Nightmare: Unprofessional Rep for Unemployment Reapplication - Need Advice!

I just had the worst experience trying to reapply for unemployment benefits. The representative I spoke to was so unprofessional and didn't help at all. Has anyone else dealt with this? I'm wondering if I should try calling again or if there's a better way to handle this. Any advice would be appreciated!

Have you checked if you're actually eligible to reapply? There are specific rules about when you can file a new claim vs. reopening an existing one. Might save you some headache if you double-check that first.

0 coins

Good point. I think I'm eligible, but I'll double-check the requirements. Thanks!

I'm in the same boat, been trying to reapply for weeks now. The whole system is a joke. They make it so hard on purpose, I swear. Hang in there, OP. We're all struggling together. 💪

It's not on purpose, they're just understaffed and overwhelmed. Cut them some slack.

@profile12 Found the EDD employee lol. Jk, but seriously, they've had years to fix this system. No more excuses.

SDI claim still pending after a month - what to do?

Hey everyone, I'm having some issues with my SDI claim. I submitted all my documents back on February 27th, but it's still showing as pending. It's been over a month now and I haven't heard anything. Has anyone else experienced such a long wait time? I'm getting worried and could really use some advice on what to do next. Should I try calling them or is there another way to check on the status?

I heard they're super backlogged because of budget cuts. Doesn't make it any less frustrating tho 😤
