No PFL payments or receipt notice from EDD for Oct-Dec 2024 application. What to do?

I filed for paid family leave from October to December 2024, but I haven't received any payments or even a receipt notice. Has anyone else experienced this? It's been a while and I'm starting to get worried. Any advice on what I should do next?

Ugh, I'm in the same boat. Filed for PFL last month and crickets so far. EDD's system is such a mess rn 🤦‍♂️

Have you guys tried calling? Sometimes that's the only way to get answers.

Calling? LOL good luck getting through. I've tried like 50 times 😭

I found a method to 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

Sounds sketchy. Is it legit?

Yeah, it's totally legit. I was skeptical at first too, but it saved me hours of frustration. Worth every penny imo

How long did you have to wait for the callback?

It took about 2 hours for me, but beats spending all day redialing!

Here's what you need to do: 1. Double-check your application: Make sure all info is correct and complete. 2. Contact EDD: Use their online portal or try calling (I know, it's a pain). 3. Check your mail: Sometimes they send physical notices. 4. Be patient: Processing can take 2-3 weeks, sometimes longer. 5. Document everything: Keep records of all communication. 6. Consider reaching out to your local assembly member's office. They can sometimes help expedite things. Hang in there! The system is slow, but it usually works out in the end.

This happened to me last year. Turns out they needed additional documentation but never notified me. Might be worth checking if they need anything else from you.
