2 months, no payment on claim. Advice before calling?

Ugh, I feel your pain. I was in the same boat a few months ago. Make sure you have all your documents ready when you call. They'll probably ask for your claim number, social security number, and the date you filed. Good luck!

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/W4S1W6V2hOQ

Pro tip: call first thing in the morning when they open. You'll have a better chance of getting through quickly.

Have you tried checking your claim status online? Sometimes that's faster than calling.

Here's what you need to do: 1. Gather all your documents: claim number, SSN, employment history, etc. 2. Write down a list of questions you have 3. Be polite but firm with the agent 4. Ask for a supervisor if you're not getting anywhere 5. Take notes during the call 6. Get a reference number for the call 7. Follow up with an email summarizing the call Stay calm and don't give up. The system is overwhelmed right now, but persistence pays off. Good luck!

lol good luck getting anyone on the phone. I've been trying for weeks 🤡

Have you reached out to your local representative? Sometimes they can help push things along.
