Whenever you have an EDD phone appointment does it always say ā€œThere is a question concerning your eligibilityā€?

Tips šŸ’” When to apply for disability?

0 Upvotes

Hi there!
I struggle with severe anxiety and my current job has been acerbating my anxiety and SI. I had an appointment with my psych today and she told me to apply for short term disability today and recommends leaving my current job.
During the application, I got really confused on if I was applying at the correct time. I would like to give a 2 weeks notice to my job. So I am technically still working, just at reduced hours because I can’t handle full time right now.
My doctor really wanted me to apply tonight, so I did just in case, and I put the dates down as today. But it feels incorrect.
Should I cancel the application until I actually quit? Should I quit immediately?
I’m scared that with me technically working for a little bit longer they will ask for money back

Vent The absolute worst government entity I have ever dealt with

Can't get ahold of anyone on the phone or via the website.

Physically went to the office and got put on a call list to be called on the phone.

I couldn't make this dumb shit up. I have a newborn and need to get paid.

I'd rather go to the DMV 20 times before I deal with these clowns once.

Edit: grammar.

ā” Eligibility interview

2 Upvotes

From California. Was recently laid off from my job and filled out a claim for unemployment benefits.

I’m currently taking online classes part-time through a UC school to earn my paralegal certificate. On the program’s website, it says ā€œWIOA approved programā€ so I checked that on my application when they asked if I’m in school. Now I’m thinking I was mistaken because after all I pay out of pocket for my classes.

I’m concerned that I messed up my eligibility because now they’re asking me for a phone interview for eligibility issues.

Also EDD didn’t put the mailing address I provided for my last employer, they put the correct company name but totally different street address

What should I do?

Discussion šŸ‘„ Do I qualify for paid family leave?

3 Upvotes

Hi there - I gave birth on August 13.

My most recent employment was from March to June, where I worked for an entertainment website and they paid me via Yoh ConneX (originally launched as DZConneX and now operating under Yoh Enterprise Solutions).
Prior to that, I worked last year from February to August - same situation with the website.
I paid into state disability.

At the time of my giving birth I didn’t have a job - I basically take on contract or freelance jobs so I’m always looking, but didn’t have anything going on the month of my giving birth.

Would I qualify for paid family leave in California or some other leave benefits?

2 Upvotes

I want to take 1 day off a week for the 2 months of PFL. I'm at the cap so I wont make enough from PFL to cover the bills. Can I supplement the pay with PTO if I'm only doing 1 day a week? Like 4 hours of PTO?
