EDD approved my claim but suddenly no weeks to certify - what happened?

calm down its normal. the sistem sometimes takes a few days to update after ur first certification. mine did the same thing last year n then the next certification period showed up right on schedule

This is a common issue after the first certification. The certification periods are usually biweekly, so you won't see new weeks to certify until your next scheduled date (likely May 28th). The 'no weeks to certify' message just means you're caught up on all available weeks. Regarding your pending payment, that's separate and could take 3-5 business days to process for first-time payments. If it stays pending for more than a week, then you might want to contact EDD directly.

Yeah its normal. EDD only lets you certify for weeks that have already passed. Since you just certified for the previous two weeks, you won't see new weeks until the next two-week period ends.

I had the EXACT same issue in February!!! Certified for the first time and then got that stupid message. I spent THREE DAYS trying to call EDD before I got through. The rep laughed and said it was totally normal and just means I was current on my certifications. Such a poorly designed system smh. Your next certification date should show up soon - just check your homepage every few days.

If you need to reach EDD quickly, I'd recommend Claimyr. After trying for days to get through to EDD about my 'pending' payment, I used their service and got connected to an agent in about 20 minutes. They basically call EDD for you and then connect you when they get through. Saved me days of frustration. Their site is claimyr.com and they have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/JmuwXR7HA10?si=TSwYbu_GOwYzt9km

Let me clarify some important points about the EDD certification schedule: 1. After your first certification, you will not see new weeks available until your next certification date (typically every 2 weeks) 2. The "no weeks to certify" message is normal and just means you're current on all available weeks 3. Your UI Online homepage should display your next certification date 4. First payments often show as "pending" for 3-5 business days before switching to "paid" 5. If your payment remains pending for more than 7-10 days, there might be an eligibility issue requiring attention The EDD system doesn't make this clear to new claimants, which causes unnecessary panic. Just keep checking your homepage for your next certification date.

THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO MEEEEE!!! I literally thought I did something wrong and my benefits were canceled!!! This whole system is designed to make us SUFFER. Why can't they just make it CLEAR instead of giving us heart attacks with vague messages?? I called them like 47 times and couldn't get through so I just had to wait. Sure enough, two weeks later the certification button magically appeared again. EDD is THE WORST.

Just to follow up on this thread: If your payment stays in 'pending' status for more than a week, it could indicate an eligibility issue that needs to be resolved. In that case, you should try to contact EDD. For your current situation though, the 'no weeks to certify' message is completely normal and just means you're caught up on certifications.

you know what really bugs me? the edd website looks like it was designed in 2002 and never updated. like seriously how much of our tax money goes to the edd and they can't even make a clear easy to use website?? instead they leave us all confused and panicking. sorry off topic but it drives me nuts

Thank you everyone for all your help and advice! I feel so much better knowing this is normal. I'll wait for my certification period to update and give my payment some time to process before I worry. Really appreciate all the support!
