EDD payment timing - will holiday delay my payment after certifying today?

Thanks for this! I have the Money Network card so hopefully that means faster processing. Will definitely check the status tomorrow morning. Just freaking out cause my rent is due and my landlord isn't exactly the understanding type 😫

Not always true! I got mine on time during President's Day. Think it depends on your bank and when exactly the holiday falls.

When my payment got stuck on pending last month, I could NOT get through on the phones. Called 57 times over 3 days! Kept getting the "we're experiencing high call volume" message. Ended up using a service called Claimyr (claimyr.com) that got me through to an EDD rep in about 20 minutes. They have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/JmuwXR7HA10?si=TSwYbu_GOwYzt9km Worth it when you're desperate and need to talk to someone fast. My payment went from pending to paid the same day after the call.

Do u know if theres a way to check if ur money is on the card without calling that stupid automated system?? I hate having to go thru all those menus just to check my balance. Like does money network have an app or sumthing???

Yes, there is a Money Network mobile app you can download. You can check your balance, transaction history, and even set up alerts for deposits. Much easier than calling the automated system every time. You just need to register your card on their website first before using the app.

Great news! Money Network transfers are usually pretty quick after the status changes to paid. You should have it available today or early tomorrow at the latest. Glad it worked out!

Awesome update! That's exactly how it should work - EDD processed overnight like clockwork. Since you have the Money Network card, you'll probably see the funds available within a few hours. I've noticed Money Network is usually faster than direct deposit, especially during business hours. Keep us posted on when it hits your card!

That's such a relief! I was in a similar situation last month and the stress is real when you're waiting on that payment for bills. Money Network is definitely faster than direct deposit in my experience - I usually see it available within 2-4 hours after the status changes to paid. Fingers crossed it hits your card soon so you can get that rent sorted! 🤞

That's fantastic news! I'm so glad it processed quickly for you. I've been on unemployment for about 6 months now and the anxiety around payment timing never really goes away, especially when you have bills due. The Money Network card has been a lifesaver for me compared to waiting for direct deposit. Usually takes just a few hours once it shows paid status. Hope your landlord situation works out and you can breathe easy now! Keep that update coming when it hits your card 💪

Congrats on getting the paid status so quickly! That's exactly what we were hoping for. With Money Network, I've usually seen funds available within 2-6 hours once it shows paid, sometimes even faster during weekdays. The holiday shouldn't affect the card loading since that's all electronic. Really hope it comes through in time for your rent payment today! 🙏

That's amazing news @d2bef0c1d010! So glad the EDD system processed it overnight like it should. I've been through this exact same stress with rent due and waiting on payments - it's such a relief when you see that "PAID" status. Money Network is definitely your friend here, usually way faster than direct deposit. I've seen it hit the card anywhere from 1-4 hours after showing paid, especially during weekday business hours. Crossing my fingers it comes through quickly for you today so you can get that rent taken care of! 🤞💸

ur lucky then. mine always gets stuck for atleast a extra day during holidys. EDD computers might work but the banks dont process stuff on federal holidays no matter what!!!
