CDLE claim filed 2 months ago - no payments or updates. Help!

Ugh, I'm in the same boat. It's been 3 months for me and still radio silence. The system is so broken 🤬

Have you checked your online account? Sometimes they update info there without sending notifications.

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/W4S1W6V2hOQ

Here's what worked for me: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your attempts to contact them. 2. Check your online account daily for updates. 3. Try calling right when they open - sometimes you have better luck. 4. If all else fails, contact your state representative or senator. 5. Consider filing a complaint with the Department of Labor if it's been an unreasonable amount of time. Don't give up! The system is overwhelmed but persistence usually pays off eventually.

have u tried faxing them? I know it sounds old school but I got a response within a week after I faxed my info

This is why we need to overhaul the entire unemployment system. It's a joke that people have to wait months to get the help they need. 😤

Have you checked if theres any missing information or errors on your claim? Sometimes small mistakes can hold up the whole process.
