So I have been waiting for mail from the CA EDD about my unemployment claim for over two weeks now. I haven't claimed unemployment insurance since 99 and it seems it is mostly online now which is good but they where stated after I filed online that I should get something in the mail ten days later. That was the 12th. Of course they say if it doesn't show up to contact them. What they don't tell you is contacting them is pretty much impossible. I must have called over 100 times at various times throughout different days of the week and all I get is the recording telling they are getting too many calls and to call back. So I sent them and email as well and of course I haven't heard anything via email either. So I was hoping that somehow ticketbastard
would get my W2 to me before the legal deadline so I could at least have some money in my pocket.
Well Monday is the deadline and there is still no sign of my W2 or my 1099 which our beleaguered
401k management company was suppose to be there own admission have sent be the 23rd. Because it seems without that I can't file for my return. Oh yeah California is going to delay mailing peoples refund for a couple of months too. Good thing we had that recall to vote in the governator when our budget was so screwed up because he really has a handle on things now....
Anyone have any tips for dealing with the EDD like how to get a hold of them. Someone told me to
they got through using two phone and calling with one just as the other answered but that sounds like smack to me and didn't work anyways.
In victoria with my mom unlike my fathers place I can relax here and feel pretty comfortable. I think I am going to go with my mom to church today. which should be interesting when was the last time you went to church with your mom? Mine was in London many years ago.
I still can't sleep like a normal person and it is kind of starting to bother me. I bought a new journal last night at a dollar store. I have more or less kept a journal since I was 18 or so. Of course I lost them all in the move but I like the process. I enjoy writing.
Have been reading loads. Just about to start "the siege of mecca" and then "jihad Vs. McWorld"
any reccomendations?
