Has anybody had false statement penalty weeks on their claim? If so, is there anyway to have edd reverse the penalty & pay out those weeks? I have 12 weeks of false statement penalties that i didn’t get paid for

Why? There has to be a reason. EDD finds out everything.

They won’t reverse it. It’s your penalty for receiving extra funds at some point in time. They can penalize you from 5-23 weeks.

•Wow extra funds ? But I don’t see how that’s possible when anytime my claim balance reaches $0 they stop payin

•It can be from claims ago. Which is very weird. Could be as simple as certifying for a week or more while you started a job.

To all those having trouble reaching a human at California Unemployment. I just ran across this video that gave me a shortcut to reach a human. Hope it helps! https://youtu.be/Ize0EkN4HDI

I'm dealing with a similar situation - got hit with false statement penalties and it's been a nightmare trying to get answers from EDD. From what I've researched, you can appeal the penalty decision, but you need to act fast. There's usually a 30-day window from when you receive the penalty notice to file an appeal. You'll need to gather any documentation that proves you didn't intentionally provide false information. Has anyone here successfully appealed one of these penalties? Would love to hear about the process and what evidence worked best.

•@Ryan Andre Thank you for sharing that info about the appeal process! I wasn t'aware of the 30-day window - that s'really important to know. I m'curious, when you say gather documentation to prove you didn t'intentionally provide false information, what kind of documents would be most helpful? I m'worried I might not have kept all the right paperwork from when I was certifying. Did you find any specific forms or records that were particularly useful in building your case? Also, has anyone had luck getting help from an attorney or legal aid organization for these appeals?
