Can I still get EDD benefits after moving out of state? Need advice ASAP!

I found a way to solve EDD benefits after moving states, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQjs9pFZlmc

I went through this last year. You can definitely still receive benefits, but you need to notify EDD asap. Make sure you have your move date ready when you call. They'll probably ask about your job search efforts in the new state too.

Heads up, you might need to file an interstate claim. It depends on where you're moving. Some states have agreements that make it easier, others don't. Def ask about that when you call!

OMG good luck getting anyone on the phone. I've been trying for weeks and can't get through. The system is so broken 😤

Just a heads up, make sure you're still eligible for benefits in your new state. Some states have different requirements. You don't wanna get hit with an overpayment later 😬

Here's what you need to know about moving out of state while on EDD: • Notify EDD immediately about your move • You may need to file an interstate claim • Keep certifying for benefits every two weeks • Be prepared to provide your new address and move date • You must still be available for work in your new location • Job search requirements may change • Benefits amount could be affected • Some states have reciprocal agreements, making the process easier Make sure to ask about all of these when you call. And don't forget to update your address with USPS too!

lol good luck. EDD is a joke. I moved 3 months ago and I'm still waiting for them to sort out my claim. 🤡

Has anyone tried updating their address online? Is that even possible or do you HAVE to call?

Pro tip: start calling RIGHT when they open. Like, be dialing at 7:59:59 am. Sometimes you can get through before the queue fills up.

I went through this same situation about 6 months ago when I moved from CA to Texas. Here's what worked for me: 1. Call EDD BEFORE you move if possible - it's way easier to handle while you're still in state 2. Have your exact move date ready, they'll need it for their records 3. Ask specifically about the Interstate Benefits Program - this is what handles cross-state claims 4. Keep all your documentation handy (ID, proof of new address, etc.) 5. Don't stop certifying! Even if there's a delay in processing, keep doing your weekly certifications The whole process took about 3 weeks for me, but I didn't have any major hiccups. Texas and CA work together pretty well on this stuff. Just be patient and persistent - you'll get through it! 💪
