What should I expect during the interview?

You will be asked questions about your claim. Sample questions appear on the back of this notice. Be prepared to answer these questions during the interview. You have the right to request more time to prepare, submit evidence, present witnesses, and be represented by any person at your own expense. If you need more time, you must reschedule your appointment prior to the time and date listed on this form. Rescheduling your interview may delay your benefit payments as you have already been scheduled to the earliest appointment available.
We may contact former employers or other witnesses to verify your statements or obtain information. You may dispute any statements or evidence they provide.

How does this eligibility interview affect my benefit payments?

If you have never received a payment on your claim and have a potential eligibility issue, additional benefits cannot be paid until the interview process is complete and your eligibility is determined. Continue to certify for benefits and submit your bi-weekly certifications online, by phone, or by mail while this issue is being resolved.
If you received a payment on your claim, but additional payments have been pending for more than two weeks because of an eligibility issue, we will process your conditional payment. If you continue to certify for benefits while we are determining your eligibility, any conditional payment will be considered an overpayment if we later find you ineligible for those benefits.

To reschedule your appointment, update your phone number, or certify for benefits, use UI Onlineā„  at edd.ca.gov/UI_Online or call one of the toll-free numbers listed above.

For information on how the EDD applies law and policy to determine eligibility, see the UI Benefit Determination Guide at edd.ca.gov/UIBDG.
