Lol welcome to the wonderful world of unemployment! Where nothing works and everything's made up 🤡

Ugh, I feel your pain! The same thing happened to me last month. It's like they're trying to make this process as difficult as possible 🙄

Seriously tho, the whole system is broken af. We need to demand better from our government!

Here's what you need to do to fix this issue: 1. Document everything: Take screenshots of the incorrect information on your claim form. 2. Gather proof: Collect official documents that show your correct name (driver's license, social security card, birth certificate). 3. Contact EDD: Try calling first thing in the morning when they open. Be persistent! 4. Explain clearly: Tell them your name is misspelled and you can't edit it online. 5. Request correction: Ask them to update your information in their system. 6. Get confirmation: Make sure they give you a confirmation number or email for the change. 7. Follow up: Check your online account in a few days to see if the change has been made. 8. If all else fails: Consider reaching out to your local state representative's office. They can sometimes help with EDD issues. Remember, stay calm and be polite but firm. Good luck!

idk man, maybe just go with the new name? could be fun 😎

This happened to my cousin. Turns out it was because of an old drivers license that had a typo. Check if that might be the case for you too!

Ive been dealing with this exact issue for 3 MONTHS. still no resolution. good luck my friend, your gonna need it

Maybe try filling out a new claim form? Sometimes starting fresh can bypass weird glitches in the system.

Claimyr can indeed be a useful tool for those struggling to get through to the EDD. However, it's worth noting that spending $20 might not be feasible for everyone, especially if you're already struggling financially. Balancing the cost against the time saved is crucial.

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. Here's the link: https://claimyr.com

Have you tried calling the unemployment office? I know it's a pain, but sometimes talking to a real person is the only way to fix these things.

I swear, dealing with EDD is like trying to nail jello to a tree. Impossible and messy.

have u tried turning it off and on again? 😂

This happened to me too! Turns out my employer had my name wrong in their system. Check with your last job to see if that might be the issue.

Have you tried submitting a written request for correction? Sometimes the old-school methods work best with these bureaucratic nightmares.

Have you tried sacrificing a goat to the EDD gods? Might be more effective than actually using their website 🐐
