Need EDDCAN to update address for unemployment benefits - help!

I found a way to solve EDD address update without EDDCAN, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJm31TzL07o

Ugh, dealing with EDD is always a nightmare. I had to update my address last year and it took forever. Have you tried calling their customer service line? Be prepared to wait on hold for hours tho 🙄

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone! I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/Ize0EkN4HDI

Have you tried updating your address online? Sometimes you can do it through your EDD account without needing to call.

Listen up, here's what you need to do: 1. First, try to locate your EDDCAN on any correspondence you've received from EDD. It should be on letters or emails they've sent you. 2. If you can't find it, you'll need to call. Use the main EDD customer service number: 1-800-300-5616. 3. Best times to call are usually early morning (8:00 AM) or just before lunch (11:30 AM). 4. While waiting, gather all your info: full name, old address, new address, SSN, and any claim numbers you have. 5. Once you get through, explain your situation clearly. Ask them to update your address AND provide your EDDCAN. 6. After the call, follow up online. Log into your EDD account and make sure the address change is reflected. 7. If you're really struggling to get through, consider using a call-back service like others have mentioned. It might cost a bit, but it could save you a lot of time and stress. Remember, persistence is key with EDD. Don't give up!

man, the EDD system is so broken. why do we have to jump through so many hoops just to update our address? its ridiculous 🤬

Has anyone else had their benefits delayed because of address issues? I'm worried about missing payments while this gets sorted out.

Quick question - does changing your address affect your claim in any other way? Like, do they reassess your eligibility or anything?

I feel your pain, OP. I've been dealing with EDD for months now. It's like they purposely make everything as difficult as possible 🙄 Hang in there!

Pro tip: if you cant find your EDDCAN, check your spam folder for emails from EDD. Sometimes their emails end up there and you might find your number in one of those messages.

Just went through this exact same situation last month! Here's what worked for me: I couldn't find my EDDCAN anywhere, so I had to call the 1-800-300-5616 number. After trying for days, I finally got through by calling right at 8:00 AM sharp. The rep was actually really helpful - they updated my address over the phone AND gave me my EDDCAN for future reference. The whole call took about 15 minutes once I got connected. Make sure you have your SSN, old address, new address, and any unemployment claim numbers ready. Also, don't worry about your benefits being interrupted - mine continued without any issues once the address was updated. Good luck, and don't give up! It's frustrating but definitely doable.
