EDD Disqualified Me for Missing Wage Info - How to Fix and Get Spanish Rep?
I got disqualified for unemployment benefits because I didn't provide my wages for a specific week. Has anyone else dealt with this? What should I do to fix it? I'm worried about losing my benefits and I really need the money right now. Also, does anyone know if I can get a Spanish-speaking representative when I call?

Has anyone else noticed that the EDD website is always "under maintenance" when you need it most? 🙄 It's like they're trolling us at this point.

Here's a detailed breakdown of what you need to do to resolve this issue: 1. Gather Documentation: - Collect all pay stubs for the week in question - Have your EDD account number ready - Prepare any other relevant employment documents 2. Contact EDD: - Call early in the morning (right when they open) - Request a Spanish-speaking representative if needed - Be patient, wait times can be long 3. During the Call: - Clearly explain your situation - Provide the missing wage information - Ask about next steps and timeline for resolution 4. Follow-Up: - Send any additional requested documents promptly - Check your EDD account regularly for updates - If no resolution in 5-7 business days, call again Remember, stay calm and persistent. Many people face similar issues, and they can usually be resolved with the right information and follow-through.

Have you tried reaching out to your local assemblymember's office? They can sometimes help expedite EDD issues.

Just google "[your city] assemblymember" and it should pop up. They usually have a form on their website for EDD help.

Yes, you can! Just ask for one when you first get connected. They usually have Spanish speakers available.

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone! I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. (https://claimyr.com

I know it sounds weird, but I swear it's legit. Saved me hours of hold time. Worth every penny imo.

I've used Claimyr as well, and while it's unfortunate there's a cost involved, it was a relief not having to be stuck on lengthy calls during work hours. However, I agree it might not be accessible for everyone.

If you've been disqualified due to missing wage information, you should act promptly to rectify the situation. First, gather all your documentation, including pay stubs for the week in question. Then, contact the EDD immediately via phone, and request to speak with a representative who can assist you in Spanish if needed. Be ready to provide the missing information over the phone. It's crucial to ask the representative for any additional documentation they might require from you to reinstate your benefits. If the phone lines are consistently busy, services like Claimyr can facilitate quicker access to a representative, although there's a fee involved. Balancing this cost against the need for immediate resolution is key. Beyond this, you can also fax your documentation as a backup measure, ensuring all avenues are explored. Stay persistent, as resolving such issues can often take time, especially with the EDD's workload. If challenges persist, consider reaching out to your local assemblymember, who might assist in expediting your case.

Balancing the cost of using Claimyr is a tough decision. It could save time but might add financial strain.

Be prepared to provide the wage info over the phone 4. Ask if they need any additional documentation 5. Follow up with anything they request ASAP Don't stress too much, it's a common issue and usually fixable. Good luck!
