Have you considered that maybe there's a new deduction or tax withholding? $45 difference could be some kind of percentage taken out. Double-check your withholding settings on your EDD account.
The whole system is broken af. We need serious reform. Anyone else think its time we start protesting or something?
Has anyone tried applying for PUA instead of regular UI? I heard its easier to get approved for extensions that way.
Honestly, at this point, I've given up on EDD and started doing gig work. It's not ideal, but at least it's some income while I look for a permanent job. Maybe consider that as a backup plan?
Pro tip: call right when they open. I got through after only 30 mins on hold last week. Also, be super nice to the rep, even if youre frustrated. They deal with angry people all day and are more likely to help if youre pleasant.

•Source? I'll believe it when I see it. Politicians always promise to fix EDD during election season 🙄

PRO TIP: Call exactly at 8:01 AM when they open. Keep redialing if you get a busy signal. It took me 43 tries but I finally got through!
