I had just started the PUA program a few months before they cut it. I have over $13k left in my claim when they stopped paying people. Is there a way to gain access to that?

I found a way to solve accessing remaining PUA claim funds, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUgteEBJk0Y

You need to call Edd and speak with tier 2 to request a backdate. Edd opens 7 days a week. 8-8 Call Edd 1-800-300-5616 Or use $5 discount link to copy and paste.  Claimyr calls Edd for you less than 2 hours and 10 free calls included. https://join.claimyr.com/49a083

Only way is through backdating if you can prove you were unemployed some weeks before your claim start date

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
