EDD underpaid me due to missing wages - can't reach anyone to fix it!

Same thing happened 2 me last year!! They missed an ENTIRE quarter of wages from my claim. It took forever to fix but I finally got it sorted and got backpay for the difference. u gotta be super persistent

You need to file a specific form called the "Wage Investigation" form (DE 1326E). This is different from just sending in your W2s. You can download it from the EDD website, fill it out with all your missing employment info, and upload it directly to your UI Online account under "Upload Document". Make sure to include: - The employer name exactly as it appears on your paystubs - Their EDD employer account number if you have it - The exact quarters where wages are missing - Copies of paystubs from those quarters After uploading, follow up with a message in UI Online specifically referencing the form number and date you submitted it. They should recalculate within 10-14 days once they have the proper form. If they don't, you'll need to try to speak with a tier 2 specialist.

OMG I'm dealing with the EXACT same problem!!! Been trying to call for 2 weeks straight and can never get through!!! It's so frustrating I could scream. They're missing an entire job from my claim calculation and I'm getting $350 less each week than I should be. How is anyone supposed to survive on these tiny payments when they can't even calculate them correctly????

I successfully had my WBA increased last year after EDD initially missed wages from one of my employers. Here's what worked for me: 1. Submit the DE 1326E form (Wage Investigation) through UI Online 2. Wait 10 business days 3. If no response, you MUST speak with a Tier 2 specialist, not just any representative The regular representatives can't process wage recalculations - you need someone with higher access. The problem is getting through the phone system to reach them. I spent weeks trying to call until I found this service called Claimyr (claimyr.com) that got me through to an EDD rep in about 20 minutes. They basically call EDD for you and connect you when they get through. They have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/JmuwXR7HA10?si=TSwYbu_GOwYzt9km Once I got through to a Tier 2 specialist, they verified my additional wages on the spot and adjusted my claim. I received the difference in back payments about 5 days later. Don't give up - you are entitled to benefits based on ALL your qualifying wages!

Why is everybody always complaining about EDD?? If you filed your taxes correctly and your employer reported your wages properly this wouldn't happen. I never had any problems with my claim. Just saying.

Just to clarify something important - the wage investigation process has specific timeframes: 1. EDD has 10 business days to respond to a wage investigation request 2. If they determine you're owed additional benefits, they legally must pay the difference retroactively to all weeks already paid 3. If denied, you have 30 days to appeal the decision Make sure you keep documentation of when you submit everything. Also, the form needs to be filled out completely with exact dates of employment and employer information. Missing information will delay the process. One more tip: when you do get through to EDD, ask for the status of your wage investigation by the form number (DE 1326E) and submission date. This helps them locate it in their system faster.

anybody else think its weird how EDD always seems to make mistakes that give us LESS money but never mistakes that give us MORE? just sayin lol

hey OP just wondering did you get this resolved? im dealing with missing wages issue too & wanna know if the form thing actually worked
