    So I doubt this is true because it simply isn't how EDD works.
    First off you can get EDD if you have a job but your hours were slashed to far below full time (below 20 hours a week).
    Second, EDD pays based on your WEEKLY report. If you don't submit a weekly report, there's no record in the system to pay you. So these people who "don't want or need" the money would have to be continuing to fill out those weekly reports and...why? I am finally moving up to full time this week and I can't WAIT to check the little box that says I dont need the service anymore and not have to fill them out.
    This doesn't add up.

      Did you apply online? I cannot do this online because they are asking a concrete date when you started to work and when you had quit the work and for what reason you quit. So there's no option to let them know that you are still working on one job but lost the other job.

    this happened to us, exactly the same way... my husband got laid off from work on a Thursday we filed for UI that same day but by Monday he had already found another job for the mean time. I called EDD and told them we don't need the money, to take it back cause I didn't want to have to pay it later on or be accused of scamming the system and I also told them I never responded to the letters they would send assuming they would cancel my claim but they said right now they're are not fixing any claims they're just sending payments automatically to who ever filed a claim and that they're not requiring the work search response they usually do. the person I spoke to told me to send a letter to EDD explaining what happened and not to touch the money because once this is all over they will fix everything and claim it all back. I'm still waiting for them to take it back.

    To be fair, EDD has always been a shit show. Before the pandemic, they made it damn near impossible to get you benefits. In a way I'm lucky to have my full-time job, but I'm kind of salty that people are making way more in unemployment. Makes me wonder should I have taken that offer my job proposed to me. Strings are definitely attached when it comes down to EDD

      The pay for histology techs/pathology assistants is between 30-45 hr. That's why STEM is pushed so hard in the classrooms. The reason why foreigners are taking "our" jobs is because the classes are difficult. Most people I work with can barely speak English but can do math. We don't want to take the difficult classes. Then you wonder why your stuck with a crappy low wage job. Im no means smarter than anyone, I had to study twice as much as others. If you are willing to go thru a challenging 2 year program you will never be out of work again. Please tell any young person in your life about this opportunity.

      @@six6goddess214 It's not so much Americans don't "want" to take the appropriate classes, but that those classes simply aren't offered at an early enough stage... There's also a reason for that; foreigners work cheaper. Period. If the major tech & engineering companies really wanted to invest in our own labor force, they'd invest in programs in schools... Also, US schools push the general "college" narrative, but don't put any emphasis on taking appropriate courses, only that a "degree" is the key to a corner office, regardless of major.

    I filed for unemployment in March 2020 and received two payments in May and then nothing. So far they have missed 13 payments. They are not taking calls on their main phone line, it simply says "We are not taking calls at this time". They do not answer their own email inbox through their website and you can not make an appoint to speak to anyone in person. It is a pretty slick racket. I understand they are busy with all the new claims but there's got to be limit at some point. I mean if there is no accountability then why bother right?

    Believe me ppl who get unemployment and are working will get in the biggest trouble they ever had! Once EDD catches up with them they will have to pay ALL that 💰 back PLUS interest and FEES. U r talking I e $2,000 overpayment to $8,890+. Wait till they get that letter! And EDD wants it all now. Not later. Since the person knowingly cheated if they can't pay they will have their job check taken. Who needs this horror?!?

    IS ANYONE ELSE PISSED OFF???
    I support the hero's act, but I am totally PISSED OFF that people are bringing home more money in one week than they did in one month! Maybe a slight exaggeration but FACT: 3 people in my family are bringing home 50 to 90 percent more than they did ehen they were working! My Brother-in-laws Girl worked part time at Stop and Shop and was getting a check for 50$ a week, now she's bringing home 650$+ per week! I don't qualify for ANY benefits and my husband is on SSD (750$/mo - not enough to live on 😁)
    I've paid more in taxes as the 3 of them collecting did combined, and I can't get ANY help. Thank God for my Father-in-law! BUT HOW EMBARRASSING!!!!!!! I am mortified I need his help!
    WHY WHY WHY could we have not calculated a percentage of tax payers income for the unemployment benefits being paid? 2 of the people in my family are lazy and have lived off my husbands Father FOR YEARS... now they are in heaven. THERE IS NO, NO, NO INCENTAVE FOR THEM TO GO BACK TO WORK.... I am sure I am not the only person who's noticed this, and I can state, as this is my area if expertise, performing a simple cacluation to achieve that objective is no big deal. Regardless of the age, complexity and latency of a computer system.

Like what? So I’m out risking my life working my ass off showing up everyday and can’t get some help idc about the money but damn you already giving the people an extra 600$ bonus ? So why can’t they give that extra 600$ bonus to essential workers a week as well? I mean that’s only somewhat fair?

      These people could have gone online and stopped it. It was probably hard to figure out. There is now an overpayment portal to pay it back.
      Honestly all the edd had to do was make simple instructional videos on their website/youtube to help people rather than putting information out through various local news youtubes or their overally complicated newsletter system.
      I had to spend days online searching youtube/Twitter/reddit and facebook to get any coherent information. The edd really needs to modernize their communication efforts. It would have kept their phone system less bogged down.

    We interview an old old man who still has to work full time. He somehow accidentally got $4200 on a prepaid debit card, and accidentally certified for benefits every two weeks.
    Meanwhile, about a dozen companies gave back the MILLIONS of dollars they received "in error." The story last month was that out of the millions of companies in the US, 13 of them publicly return the $170 MILLION they were given. Never a thought given to millions of other companies that kept their mouth shut.
    If you insist on having that guy in your story, at least have it be about why he should spend the money on health care so he can retire for a few months.
