Looks like the CA EDD Unemployment Insurance site is crashing right now [View all]

Can’t get past the initial login.

I’m guessing it is being overwhelmed with the latest wave of applicants for UI benefits.

Next logjam will be on 4/28, when the site opens a new portal for independent contractors, 1099 workers etc who were not previously eligible for UI to apply for benefits under the CARES Act expansion.

I am guessing that 40-50 million Americans will have filed for UI by June.
