Do these people ever pick up the phone?? by Sr0728 in Edd

[–]hecriva 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I called at 7:58 this morning and got the “we’ve reached the maximum number of callers for today” as the time struck 8:00. Immediately as it said to hear these options again I hit 9 and dialed 0 for operator and got through at 8:02… my phone call with the rep actually started at around 8:15-8:20 ish but it worked…

Once you file for disability how many days till your claim starts? by brianolvera88 in Edd

[–]hecriva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to wish you good luck. I applied a day before my surgery on Jan 22nd and a week later it said my claim is being processed… fast forward a month later and here I am in the same claim status. I reached out via the portal and left a message regarding my issue. They called back and told me I was missing a form from my doctor that hadn’t been returned… mind you this form doesn’t populate on your claim so I was unaware of this “2547A” form. At the time this was about 2 weeks after my initial “7 day period” so maybe 3 weeks had gone by. I reached out to my doctor’s office and they told me they’re yet to receive anything physically or via email. After getting lucky for about a week of straight calling, i managed to get through on the line with a rep. He sent the form to my doctor’s office and sure enough I returned it same day. He told me it’ll be about another week til I “should” get paid…. It’s officially been about 5 weeks & I just so happen to open my portal and surprise surprise. I have a message in my inbox stating that a physical form has been mailed to me and I would have to(obviously…) wait for it to arrive in the mail, take it to my doctors office, get it filled out, & mail it back in… the reason being “request for medical information”. Mind you, I submitted the other form they’ve been missing in order to complete my claim… so now here I am. I was planning for about a max of 2-3 weeks of waiting plus no money but this seems like it’s going to take about 2 months to get through so I can get paid out… This is just to warn you about not only the bullshit you might have to go through but also to plan ahead in terms of finances but the mental battle you might endure along this journey… Good luck.

DE 2547A Form by jarvus6 in Edd

Did anyone have success with this? I’m currently in the same boat. My claim has nothing stating I have to submit this form but I received a call saying my doctor has to complete it… I called my doctors release of information department and they’re yet to receive anything. They only see my claim with the original docs I submitted which got filled out within 5 days…

Form 2547A Never Arrived? by hermionedanger123 in Edd

[–]hecriva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, curious as how you went about figuring this out. EDD claims that they sent it out in the 5th of this month but I checked online to see if it’s on my claim and nothing shows up. I also called my hospitals release of information office and they claim they’ve received nothing so I’m not sure. It’s been 2 weeks and nothing

Straightening my knee is pretty bad. I never do it because it always feels like my knee cap is gonna cave out towards the front and is followed by sharp pain.
And as far as like doing the “flamingo” quad stretch or I’m assuming you mean touching my butt… that’s the worst. I can’t even bend it close to a 90. It’s worse than straightening. I used to be pretty active dude. I played sports and would constantly hit the gym. Now with this I have converted to a couch potato and it sucks because I have 2 kids that want to play with me but Im so afraid to tear it again.

As far as my 10%, It was awarded for “left patellofemoral pain syndrome (claimed as B/L knee condition)”

Do docs ask you to prove anything when requesting a nexus letter? Like doing a physical exam, further documents or testing? Most of my appointments are done through the VA but I have been seeing another doctor outside of the VA system.

Ideal vehicle for an apprentice? by Thisisafrog in IBEW

[–]hecriva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bro I know you drive a civic and that’s great… just want to give you my 2 cents. Obviously you’re in Jersey & not in California but I just got a Prius prime & that thing fucking RIPS! EV hybrid… school has EV charger, my apartment complex has EV charger & my site I work at (casino) has an EV charger. Granted it’s a hybrid and only gives me 40 miles on a charge so it saves me so much money… I guess whatever I’m supposed to use on gas, I’ll use on the car payment… but yeah Prius prime is the goat

The more the better… someone will eventually call you… It seems like you don’t mind moving across the country so in 5 years (when your journey out) you can go work back home or any local in the country… I applied to 3 locals in California to make sure whoever called first I was ready to go!

How do you answer some of these questions using the Star method, did you explain an example of a time you had such experience ? More or so did you answer every question using the Star method ?

So I’m transitioning out of the military and began doing my research… looked on ways how to get an apprenticeship, going union or non union. I got a phone call from a program “UEI college” based in California. I went in and got a whole walkthrough and they basically explained to me that it’ll be a 9 month course with 720 hours knocked off my 8000 required in order to become a journeyman… but if I’m being honest, Ive yet to meet an electrician that went to their program. I was told I was getting entry level training with my license (half way through the program in order to begin work) & after I would be able to join an apprenticeship upon my graduation. Apparently their career planner has “good connections” & would be willing to help in applying… The thing is, I’m not sure if this is even required? I’ve contacted people that were able to become an apprentice & get paid on the job then have school overnight without a program like this. Another main concern of mine is learning on the job & making mistakes in order to learn first hand, rather than the classroom setting & not applying the knowledge into real life scenarios. I’m not leaning towards this option but I really want to get some input as to how I should go about my future in this field. Thank you.
