Weekly ESD claim filing only available on Sundays? Can't find the option

You can file your weekly claim anytime Sunday through Saturday, but you need to look for the 'File Weekly Claim' button in the upper right section of your eServices dashboard. If you don't see it, make sure you're fully logged in and viewing the correct claim. Also, have you already filed for this week? The system won't show the option if you've already submitted for the current week.

sometimes u have to click on the menu at the top left that has like three lines. thats where they hide the file weekly claim button on my account. its weird how its different for everyone lol

This is a common issue! The weekly filing button should be visible Sunday through Saturday, but there are several reasons why it might not appear: 1. Your benefit year may have expired 2. You might be looking at an older claim instead of your current one 3. There could be a pending issue requiring adjudication before you can file again 4. The system might be experiencing technical issues I recommend checking if there are any alerts or messages in your eServices inbox. If you can't resolve it online, you'll need to call ESD directly at 800-318-6022. Be prepared for a long wait time though.

THE ESD WEBSITE IS GARBAGE!!!! I've had the exact same problem 3 times in the past year. Sometimes the button just randomly disappears. Try logging out completely, clearing your browser cache, and logging back in. Sometimes using a different browser works too. Chrome seems to work better than Edge or Safari with their stupid website.

If you need to reach ESD by phone, I'd recommend trying Claimyr (claimyr.com). After struggling to get through for weeks, I finally tried their service and got connected to an ESD agent in about 20 minutes instead of spending days redialing. They have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/7DieNd3C7zQ?si=26TzE_zGms-DODN3. It was actually worth it for me because I had a similar issue where my weekly claim option disappeared and it turned out there was a flag on my account that only a rep could remove.

Went through the exact same thing last month when I started my claim! For me, the problem was I needed to complete my initial job search check-in with WorkSource before the weekly claim option would appear. Did you do that yet? It's a required step before your first weekly claim can be filed. Check your messages or notices in eServices to see if they're asking you to complete that requirement.

UPDATE: Problem solved! It was exactly what @profile4 suggested - I had to complete my WorkSource registration first. After I did that and waited about an hour, the weekly claim button magically appeared! For anyone else who has this problem, check if you need to complete your WorkSource registration first. Thanks everyone for the help!!!

glad u got it figured out! i had a similr thing happen but with my iD.me verification. the ESD website is so confusing they should really make it more clear what steps u need to do and when!
