I was fired from my job in 10/2010, and have been collecting unemployment ever since. EDD stated that my claim would expire 1 year later in 10/2011, and instructed me to file a new claim (which I did) when the date approached and I contacted them via e-mail. I went through the regular motions and channels, but when all was said and done I received a "Notice of Determination of Invalid Claim, Section 1277" form in the mail due to the fact I had not worked since filing my first claim. Since I am still on an extension, EDD said that I will continue to receive regular payments until the amount on my first claim reached $0.00, and they would then determine whether I was eligible for another extension.
However, here's my problem: because they informed me that the 2nd claim I filed was invalid, I never mailed in the continued claim form for this failed claim by the date instructed to (10/23/2011). I completely forgot about this form while I filed the other claim forms sent to me by EDD for my extension...until I happened upon it while going through some paperwork recently. I'm still within the 14 day period to mail it in, but does anybody know if it is necessary to do so since the other claim filed was found invalid anyways? And if I do, will this cause problems with the remaining payments on my extension?
If anyone could help me with this ASAP, I'd REALLY appreciate it!
This is the first time anyone from CA has asked this question.
If you are certain this claim form relates to the claim which was denied, it doesn't make sense to submit this. However, definitely call EDD tomorrow to verify.

I'm sure it does relate to the invalid claim since I received another continued bi-weekly claim form for my first claim in the mail not long afterwards. I filled it out, mailed it in, and received my payment as usual with nothing out of the ordinary...which is why I'm not sure if it's necessary to send in the form for the second/invalid claim.
But yes, I agree, probably best to call EDD early tomorrow. Just hope I can get through to someone on the phone, and that they actually know what they're doing.

Well, I tried all day to get a hold of someone from EDD on the phone & on different extensions, and I got NOBODY...
Guess I'll just have to send EDD an e-mail, which seems the next most logical step. Though I was hesitant to do this since the last time I e-mailed them a question it led to me submitting another claim which was declared invalid.
There have been cases where people have gotten checks for their new state claims for a week or two but at this point, your state claim has been denied so you should be fine. If I were you, I would go to the EDD website and sign up for web-cert; once you log on you can see which weeks are still outstanding. If you don't wish to do that, go ahead and send your paper form in.

Thanks for the advice. I decided to just not send the form in since I received payment on the weeks listed anyways from my original claim, and they informed me I'm still scheduled to receive my next claim form next week. I think I'm in the clear, but we'll see what happens...
Just in case anyone was curious, things worked out! Now I hope I get another year of unemploymet (like they promised).
