ESD alert about 'missing employer information' - keep getting benefits?

I had this exact alert back in January. It's usually just ESD verifying some details with your former employer. As long as the info you provided in your initial application matches what your employer reports, you should be fine. Keep filing your weekly claims as normal. My payments weren't interrupted at all - the alert was just their system doing a routine check.

ya i got somthing like this 2 weeks ago... didnt do anything special n my $ kept coming but then again mine was probably different cuz it said something about quarterly review not missing info

I GOT THIS EXACT THING and then my payments STOPPED for THREE WEEKS with NO EXPLANATION!!!! Had to call ESD like 50 times before someone finally fixed it!!! Their system is GARBAGE and half the time they don't even know what's going on with their own alerts!!! Don't trust what it says about continuing to get benefits - CALL THEM NOW before your claim gets stuck!!!

I work in HR and we get these verification requests from ESD all the time. It's usually because something wasn't filled out completely on either your end or the employer's end. Could be missing dates, wage information, or even something simple like a department code. As long as you responded to the alert, you've done your part. The employer has a deadline to respond too.

If you're really worried, I'd recommend using Claimyr to get through to an ESD agent quickly. I was stuck with a similar issue last month and spent days trying to reach someone. I found this service at claimyr.com that got me connected to an ESD agent in about 20 minutes instead of waiting on hold forever. They have a video demo here: https://youtu.be/7DieNd3C7zQ?si=26TzE_zGms-DODN3. Totally worth it for the peace of mind of talking to someone who could verify everything was fine with my claim.

Yes, it actually works! I was skeptical too but it saved me hours of frustration. They basically navigate ESD's phone system for you and call you back when they have an agent on the line.

i got that alert thing too but mines was different i think cuz it asked me about my job search activities again even tho i already entered them weird system lol but my benefits kept coming so maybe yours will too good luck man

Just to clarify for everyone: The "missing employer information" alert is generally part of ESD's verification process. When you first file a claim, you provide your employment history. ESD then contacts those employers to verify the information. Sometimes there are discrepancies or missing details that need to be resolved. The alert is actually a good sign - it means ESD is actively processing your claim. As long as you've responded to the alert, you've done your part. In most cases, benefits continue without interruption while this verification happens in the background. However, if there's a significant discrepancy between what you reported and what your employer reports, it could trigger an adjudication issue. Keep filing your weekly claims as instructed and watch your ESD account for any new alerts or messages.

anyone know if theres a way to see WHY they need the missing info? like what exactly is missing??

Update: Just wanted to let everyone know that my payment for this week came through normally! Looks like the alert didn't affect anything. Thanks for all the helpful replies - this group is amazing for calming my unemployment anxiety!
