To all those having trouble reaching a human at California Unemployment. I just ran across this video that gave me a shortcut to reach a human. Hope it helps! https://youtu.be/Ize0EkN4HDI
I had the same issue! Even though I verified with for EDD, Bank of America requires their own separate identity verification process. You'll need to visit a BOA with two forms of ID - I brought my driver's license and passport. The process was actually pretty quick once I got there, took about 15 minutes. Make sure to call ahead to confirm what forms of ID they accept, as some locations might have specific requirements. Once verified at BOA, you should be able to access your debit card account normally.
@Henrietta Beasley This is really helpful! I m'dealing with the same frustrating situation right now. Quick question - did you need to make an appointment at the BOA or were you able to just walk in? Also, did they give you any trouble about the debit card specifically, or did they treat it like a regular account verification? I m'worried they might give me the runaround since it s'unemployment related.

You need to verify your identity with Bank of America now. ID ME is for the EDD. It’s fast and easy at BOA. Just go into any branch.
