EDD Appeal
Appeal a California EDD unemployment determination with evidence and deadline tracking.
EDD denials can be reversed at the CUIAB hearing with proper evidence and argument.
California EDD appeals go through the California Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board (CUIAB). You must appeal within 20 days of the determination mailing date.
Who this is for: California workers whose EDD unemployment claim was denied and who want to appeal.
