Amid investigation of a massive disability scam, EDD stopped paying Kelleigh Martin who couldn't work due to her high-risk pregnancy. Then, she gave birth to her twins prematurely. After hundreds of hours trying to reach an unemployment representative as her bills piled up, Martin contacted 7 On Your Side for help.
Bringing a new baby into the world is a time of joy and stress. But as many brought their newborns home, they found the EDD had frozen their benefits.
An EDD representative said her doctors would receive a notice showing how to verify their identities. However, the doctors said they never received any notice, and could not get answers either. "We're sorry, the maximum number of callers waiting to reach a representative has been reached. Please call again," was the recorded message she got hundreds of times.
Martin tried hard not to let the stress affect her, but bills were piling up. Besides mortgage, utilities, groceries and car payments, her prenatal hospital bills had shot up into the thousands of dollars.
