ESD calling after Governor's expedite request - what info will they need?

When ESD calls after a Governor's office intervention, they usually just need to verify your identity and confirm details about your claim situation. Have your claim ID number handy, know the dates of your last employment, and be ready to explain what specific issues you're experiencing with your claim. They'll likely ask about the adjudication reason (separation, availability, etc.) and may need to verify some basic personal information. Governor's office expedites often result in same-day callbacks, so that's normal. The person calling usually has the authority to resolve your issue on the spot if possible. Just be honest about your situation and follow their instructions carefully.

When ESD calls after a Governor referral, be ready with: - Your SSN (last 4 digits) - Claim ID number - Employment history for the last 18 months (dates, company names, reason for separation) - Any documentation related to your specific adjudication issue They typically want to resolve your claim quickly after a Governor's office nudge. The call is usually to gather any missing information or clarify contradictions in your claim. If your adjudication is about job separation, have details about why you left. If it's about availability, be ready to explain your work search activities. Keep your phone nearby - they often call from a blocked or unidentified number!

Omg I went through this EXACT thing last month!!! The call is actually pretty chill, they just want to verify basic info they already have. For me they asked about my last employer and why I was let go (layoff in my case). Once they confirmed I was the right person, they basically just explained what was happening with my claim and what would happen next. Just a heads up - they might ask security questions like your address or birth date to verify identity. My call lasted maybe 15 minutes? The lady was super nice and my claim was fixed by the next day!!! Governor's office expedite actually works!!

I've been through this process twice with ESD claims in the past year. When they call after a Governor's expedite request, they're typically focused on resolving whatever specific issue has your claim held up. In my experience, they already have most of your information in front of them and are calling to fill in gaps or verify inconsistencies. They'll likely ask about: 1. The specific reason for your adjudication (this varies widely depending on your situation) 2. Any details that might be missing from your initial application 3. Information about your job separation if that's what's being disputed The call is actually a GOOD thing - it means someone is actively working on your claim rather than it sitting in a digital pile. Just answer truthfully and be clear about your situation. And yes, they often call from unknown/blocked numbers, so answer all calls today even if you don't recognize the number.

they probly wont even call u tbh... i contacted govs office TWICE and they said same thing both times but nobody ever called me back!!! the whole system is joke!!!! they just tell u what u want to hear but nothing happens. i waited by phone all day both times and NOTHING! ended up having to try for 3 WEEKS to get through to someone at ESD myself!!!

Try using Claimyr if they don't call you back today. I was in the same boat - got the Governor's office involved but still no call after 2 days. Used this service called Claimyr that got me through to an actual ESD agent in like 20 minutes instead of waiting on hold for hours. They have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/7DieNd3C7zQ?si=26TzE_zGms-DODN3 The website is claimyr.com - it basically holds your place in line so you don't have to stay on hold forever. The agent I talked to was able to clear my adjudication right away. Worth checking out if the Governor's office route doesn't pan out by end of day.

omg dont freak out!! its good theyre calling u!! when i got a call after governors office helped me they just wanted to check if i was actually me (birthday, address) and then asked about my last job and why i left. make sure u answer ANY call today, even unknown numbers!!! they fixed my claim right after the call and i got $$$ the next week!

Good news - the call after a Governor's office request is usually from a higher-level adjudicator who has the authority to resolve your claim on the spot! This means you're being fast-tracked. In my experience, prepare the following: 1. Have your claim ID number ready (from your eServices account) 2. Know the exact dates of employment and separation for jobs in the last 18 months 3. Be prepared to explain your availability for work and any limitations 4. If your issue is about job separation, have a clear explanation of why you left (layoff, fired, quit, etc.) They typically review your file before calling, so they're usually looking for specific information to clear up whatever is causing the adjudication delay. The call usually takes 15-20 minutes, and they often make a decision right away. Good luck! This should resolve your claim much faster than waiting in the regular queue.
