Late CalJOBS resume upload before eligibility interview - Will EDD disqualify me?

You're probably fine with the resume being a couple days late. The eligibility interview is most likely about the SDI issue, not about CalJOBS. When you transition from disability to unemployment, EDD always wants to verify you're able to work now. They'll ask questions about your health status, work restrictions, and job search efforts. Prepare by having documentation ready about: 1. Medical clearance to return to work (if you have it) 2. Explanation of how your condition no longer prevents you from working 3. List of jobs you've applied for since filing Be honest but confident that you're fully able and available for work. The interviewer just needs to document this for their files.

dont stress bout the caljobs thing, its not that serious. I was like a month late uploading mine last year lol. but DEF have ur doctors note for the SDI stuff cuz they r super strict about that!! good luck

Be prepared for BOTH issues to come up. EDD can be extremely inconsistent. I had an eligibility interview scheduled for one reason but they ended up asking about 3 completely different things. The CalJOBS requirement is definitely something they can ping you for, and missing deadlines can lead to disqualification. The SDI transition is absolutely going to be discussed too. I'd suggest calling EDD before your interview to find out the specific reason it was scheduled. That way you can properly prepare. Good luck actually reaching someone though - that's a whole other nightmare!

I think its TOTALLY the SDI thing!!! EDD always does this when you go from disability to unemployment. My brother had the EXACT same situation and they just wanted to make sure he was actually able to work now. The interview was like 10 minutes and they approved him right away. I don't think they even check the CalJOBS stuff tbh, pretty sure that's just a formality. They're WAY more concerned about your ability to work after being on disability.

wait, your supposed to upload a resume to caljobs? i just made an account when they told me to but didn't do anything else 😳 been getting benefits for 3 months now and nobody said anything about a resume?

To prepare for your eligibility interview: 1. Have your work search records ready - even if they don't ask, it shows you're taking requirements seriously 2. Bring medical documentation showing you're fully released to work 3. For the late CalJOBS resume, be honest but brief: "I had technical difficulties with my old account and resolved it as quickly as possible" 4. Arrive 5-10 minutes early if it's in-person, or be ready by the phone 15 minutes before if it's by phone 5. Answer questions directly without volunteering unnecessary information Most importantly: don't stress too much. Being a couple days late on CalJOBS likely won't be a major issue if everything else is in order. The SDI transition is the more significant concern they'll focus on.

btw make sure ur by ur phone for the EXACT time they say theyll call. my friend missed her interview call by like 5 min cuz she was in the bathroom and they disqualified her for like 5 weeks it was a NIGHTMARE to fix
