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!

The fact that the burden of proof is on US and not THEM is so backwards. They would not have paid you if you had not certified - that's literally how the system works! I wrote a letter stating exactly that, along with my bank statements showing regular payments, and fortunately they accepted it. You shouldn't need to prove something they already know happened.

Just to add another success story - I sent them a signed statement saying I certified weekly as required, along with my payment proofs. Got approved without issues. Don't overthink it - they're just checking boxes for some audit requirement.

Yo they are mad strict these days with verifying self-employment. My buddy just got hit with a $22k overpayment bill cuz they said his documentation wasn't sufficient. He submitted Schedule C but they wanted more proof that he was actually working before covid. Def include anything else you can find.

0 coins

Send Schedule C plus any of these if you have them: - Proof of advertising your services - Business cards - Website screenshots - Client testimonials - Social media posts about your work - Text messages arranging jobs They're looking for anything that proves you were legitimately self-employed and not just claiming it to get benefits.

I do have some old business cards and texts arranging jobs! Never thought those would come in handy for this. Thank you.

If they didnt immediately email you saying there was a problem, youre probably fine. The system usually auto-rejects right away if theres an issue with the document format.

I submitted a photo that was literally taken while I was sitting in my car and they accepted it. You'll be fine 👍

am i the only one who thinks its ridiculous we have to jump through all these hoops just to get what we're entitled to? like we already lost our jobs and now we gotta deal with this broken system??? 🤮

RIGHT?? The amount of stress they put us through is insane. Almost like they're hoping we'll just give up.

the system works exactly as designed - to be frustrating enough that some people will give up. less claims = less money they have to pay out.

Check if her phone has any location history from 2020 that might show her at the workplace consistently. Sounds weird but I know someone who used this successfully!

The Boss

The whole point of emergency unemployment during the pandemic was to help EVERYONE including cash workers. Now they're trying to claw it all back. Absolutely disgusting how NY unemployment is treating people.

Facts! And they know exactly what they're doing targeting the most vulnerable workers who had the least documentation.
