EDD Overpayment Notice: What to Do? Help!

I found a way to solve unemployment overpayment issues, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7_HD-L6l_A

Ugh, I've been there. It's such a headache. First thing you should do is carefully review the notice. Make sure all the information is correct. Sometimes they make mistakes, and you can appeal if there's an error.

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone about this! 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. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/Ize0EkN4HDI

Here's what you need to know about overpayment issues: • Don't ignore it! That'll only make things worse. • Gather all your documents related to your claim. • If you disagree with the overpayment, file an appeal ASAP. There's usually a deadline. • You can request a waiver if repayment would cause financial hardship. • Payment plans are often available if you can't pay it all at once. • Keep copies of EVERYTHING you send them. • Try to get help from a legal aid organization if you're really stuck. Hang in there, OP. It's a pain, but you'll get through this!

am i the only 1 who thinks its messed up that they can just decide u owe them money outta nowhere??? like how does that even happen

Quick question - how much are they saying you owe? I'm curious if it's similar to what they hit me with.

Pro tip: start setting aside some money now if you can. Even if you appeal, it's good to be prepared. I learned that the hard way 😅

Has anyone successfully appealed an overpayment? What was your experience like? Asking for a friend 👀
