If I could give 10 stars I would
If I could give 10 stars I would If I could give 10 stars I would Such an amazing service so needed during the times when EDD almost never picks up Claimyr gets me on the phone with EDD every time without fail faster. A much needed service without Claimyr I would have never received the payment I needed to support me during my postpartum recovery. Thank you so much Claimyr!
Really made a difference
Really made a difference, save me time and energy from going to a local office for making the call.
Worth not wasting your time calling for hours.
Was a bit nervous or untrusting at first, but my calls went thru. First time the wait was a bit long but their customer chat line on their page was helpful and put me at ease that I would receive my call. Today my call dropped because of EDD and Claimyr heard my concern on the same chat and another call was made within the hour.
An incredibly helpful service
An incredibly helpful service! Got me connected to a CA EDD agent without major hassle (outside of EDD's agents dropping calls – which Claimyr has free protection for). If you need to file a new claim and can't do it online, pay the $ to Claimyr to get the process started. Absolutely worth it!
Consistent,frustration free, quality Service.
Used this service a couple times now. Before I'd call 200 times in less than a weak frustrated as can be. But using claimyr with a couple hours of waiting i was on the line with an representative or on hold. Dropped a couple times but each reconnected not long after and was mission accomplished, thanks to Claimyr.
IT WORKS!! Not a scam!
I tried for weeks to get thru to EDD PFL program with no luck. I gave this a try thinking it may be a scam. OMG! It worked and They got thru within an hour and my claim is going to finally get paid!! I upgraded to the $60 call. Best $60 spent!

Quick tip: If you're having trouble reaching the IRS, try calling right when they open in the morning. I got through in like 10 minutes doing that!

Whatever you do, DON'T ignore this. I made that mistake and ended up owing way more in penalties and interest. Face it head-on, even if it's scary.
Thanks for the advice. Yeah, I'm definitely trying to tackle this now before it gets even worse.

Quick question - does anyone know if setting up a payment plan affects your credit score? I'm trying to buy a house soon and I'm worried this might mess that up.
It shouldn't affect your credit score directly, but the tax lien might show up on your credit report. Best to talk to a tax pro or financial advisor about your specific situation.
Thanks for the info! Guess I'll have to factor that in too. This adulting stuff is complicated 😅

Here's what you need to do: 1. Double-check all your documents for errors 2. Verify your income against what your employer reported 3. Check if you owe any back taxes or have outstanding debts 4. Try calling the IRS early in the morning (right when they open) 5. If all else fails, consider using a tax advocate service If none of these work, you might need to file an amended return. Don't panic though - sometimes these issues resolve themselves if you give it a little time. The IRS is dealing with a huge backlog, so patience is key. Good luck!
Wow, thank you so much for this detailed response! I'll definitely work through these steps. Really appreciate the help! 💯
This is solid advice. I'd add that keeping copies of all correspondence with the IRS is crucial. You never know when you might need to reference something later.

Filing taxes might still be beneficial for you even if you receive SSI and are experiencing homelessness. If you had any income besides SSI during the year (like part-time work), you might qualify for refundable tax credits like the Earned Income Tax Credit, which could result in a refund. SSI benefits themselves aren't taxable income, so you're not required to file if SSI was your only income. However, filing could still be worthwhile if you had any tax withheld from other income sources. As someone experiencing homelessness in Pinellas County, you can get free tax preparation help through VITA (Volunteer Income Tax Assistance) programs. The St. Petersburg Free Clinic and other local organizations offer these services. You don't need a permanent address to file - you can use a shelter address, general delivery at the post office, or even a trusted friend's address. Filing might connect you with benefits you didn't know you qualified for, so it's generally worth checking into, especially when free help is available.
