EDD phone interview window from 1-3pm - no call yet. Should I be worried?

They absolutely can call at the very end of the window. My interview was scheduled for 8-10am and they called at 9:58am! EDD is dealing with thousands of claims every day, so interviewers often run behind schedule. If they don't call by 3pm, wait until at least 4pm before assuming they missed you. Sometimes they run up to an hour late when they're backed up.

THEY WILL NOT CALL AFTER YOUR WINDOW ENDS!!! That's what the EDD rep told me when I called about my missed interview. If they don't call by 3pm, you NEED to contact them ASAP!!! They'll mark you as "no contact" and it will delay your benefits FOR WEEKS! This happened to me last month and I'm STILL fighting to get my claim approved.

same thing happnd to me they never called during my intrvw window. waited all day lookin at my phone lol. ended up gettin a letter 2 weeks later with a new date. super annoying

Here's what you need to know: 1) Keep your phone on and available until at least 4pm today. 2) If they don't call by then, you should call the EDD tomorrow morning as soon as they open. 3) Document that you were available during your scheduled interview time. 4) Check your EDD account online to see if there's any status update. The problem with calling EDD is actually getting through to someone. The phone lines are constantly jammed. I'd recommend using Claimyr (claimyr.com) - it's a service that helps you bypass the busy signals and long wait times. They have a demo video at https://youtu.be/JmuwXR7HA10?si=TSwYbu_GOwYzt9km. It's how I finally got through to resolve my missing interview issue last month.

Make sure your voicemail isn't full and your phone can accept calls from private/unknown numbers! I missed my EDD interview because my phone was automatically blocking "spam risk" calls - and guess how EDD calls show up sometimes? 🤦‍♀️ Also, did you get an email or just the letter/notice about the interview? Sometimes the email has more specific instructions.

they just called me!!! the interviewer apologized for being late - it's 3:15pm now. she said they're running behind today but they do try to call everyone on their list. my certification was for a voluntary quit so they had extra questions. what's your interview about? that might affect when they call you

good luck! let us know how it goessss
