DQ redetermination qualification on EDD payment activity - what does this mean?
Just checked my UI Online account and noticed something new on my payment activity screen. It shows "DQ redetermination qualification" next to my latest week. I have no clue what this means - is this good or bad? My payment is still pending and I'm super confused because I got no messages or notifications explaining this. Been certifying normally for 4 weeks now after getting laid off from my warehouse job. Anyone know if this means I'm getting paid soon or if there's a problem with my claim? Starting to worry because rent is due next week!

Omg that's such a relief! Thank you! Did you have to call them or do anything to make this happen? Or did it just automatically update to paid?

This happened to me back in January. The DQ redetermination qualification status means nothing until the money hits your account! I had that status for 3 WEEKS with nothing happening. Had to call EDD every single day just to get someone to actually push the payment through. Their systems are completely broken and nothing happens automatically like it should.\n\nThe problem is YOU CANT GET THROUGH ON THE PHONE! I tried for days hitting redial hundreds of times and always got the \

That sounds awful! I really hope I don't have to go through that. Did you eventually get your money?

Yes but only after I figured out how to actually talk to someone. I used this service called Claimyr that got me through to an EDD rep in about 20 minutes instead of doing the endless redial game. Found it after someone mentioned it here. Their site is claimyr.com and they have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/JmuwXR7HA10?si=TSwYbu_GOwYzt9km\n\nOnly way I finally got it resolved because the rep was able to manually release the payment once I explained the situation. Sometimes things get stuck in their system and just sit there until someone pushes it through.

This makes so much sense now! I think what happened is that I accidentally put that I wasn't available for work one day when I actually was (I misunderstood the question). Then I called and explained the mistake to them about 10 days ago. Sounds like they fixed it! Thank you for the detailed explanation!

UPDATE: Just wanted to let everyone know that my payment status changed from pending to paid this morning! The money isn't in my account yet but at least it's showing as paid now. Thanks for all your help explaining what was going on!

Great news! The funds should appear in your account within 24-48 hours, depending on whether you have direct deposit or the Money Network card. Glad to hear it worked out for you!

Guess u got lucky! Some of us have to fight for every penny from EDD while others just get it automatically. The system is so inconsistent it's ridiculous.
