I found a way to solve unemployment benefits expiring issue, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwHWpFLD8bU

Man, that sucks. I've been there too. Have you tried calling EDD to see if you can file for an extension? Sometimes they have programs for people who've been laid off multiple times.

Man, that sucks. I've been there before. Have you tried calling the unemployment office? Sometimes they can help you file an extension or appeal.

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 a video about it: https://youtu.be/Ize0EkN4HDI

The whole system is broken af. I've been dealing with this bs for months. They need to overhaul the entire unemployment process, its a joke 🤡

Have you checked if you qualify for any other types of assistance? Sometimes there are local programs or nonprofits that can help when unemployment runs out. Might be worth looking into while you're trying to sort things out with EDD.

Okay, let me break this down for you. I've been through this rodeo before, so here's what you need to know: • First, don't panic. There are options, but you gotta be proactive. • Check if you're eligible for a federal extension. These change, but it's worth looking into. • File an appeal ASAP if you think there's been a mistake. You usually have 30 days from the date on your notice. • Look into PUA (Pandemic Unemployment Assistance) if you're not eligible for regular UI. • Consider applying for other benefits like food stamps or rental assistance to help bridge the gap. • Keep job searching and document everything. Sometimes EDD wants proof you're looking for work. • If all else fails, contact your local state representative. They can sometimes help push things through. Remember, the system sucks, but don't give up. Keep pushing and eventually you'll get through. Hang in there!

ugh im in the same boat. its like they WANT us to be homeless or somethin 🙄

Here's what you need to do: 1. Check if you qualify for a benefit year extension. If you've earned enough wages since your initial claim, you might be eligible. 2. Look into Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation (PEUC) if it's still available in your state. 3. Consider applying for state disability insurance if you have any health issues. 4. Check out your state's workforce development programs. They often have resources for job training and placement. 5. Don't forget to apply for other assistance programs like SNAP (food stamps) or rental assistance if you're really struggling. Remember, the key is to be persistent and document everything. Good luck!

have you tried looking for work? plenty of places hiring rn

Have you tried reaching out to your former employer? Sometimes they can provide documentation that might help your case with EDD.

I'm in the same boat, OP. Got laid off in March, then again in October. EDD is a nightmare to deal with. Hang in there!

Not to be that guy, but maybe its time to look for a new job? The market's not great but there's stuff out there.

Have you checked if your state has any special programs for people who've been laid off multiple times? Some places have extra support for 'chronic unemployment' or whatever they call it.

this is why we need ubi smh

Hey OP, what industry are you in? Might be able to hook you up with some leads if we're in the same field.
