I dont know if this thread is still open but I received a Notice of Determination of Invalid Claim as the previous poster did asking me for earnings in order to qualify for my unemployment benefits.
I don;t understand this at all. Im actively seeking work and have received one extension so far. I don;t see how I am supposed to earn more than my benefit amounts to receive my benefits. I have no income and I haven't misrepresented myself in any way.
I received a very brief phone call from an EDD agent who said I was eligible until December 2013. So far, I don;t believe ive recieved anything for May at all, and I am not receiving claim forms.

This is a standard form letter CA sends out at your bye if you haven't worked since you first filed for benefits - or when you've exhausted your benefits and CA tries to establish another claim for you.
You do NOT need a new claim to continue on federal extension benefits.
How can you not know if you "received anything for May at all?"
Do you mean you haven't been paid since April?
Unless you've exhausted all state and federal extension benefits - which would mean you had a small claim - CA should be sending you claim forms.
Also, get out your original Notice of UI Award from CA. It will list your monetary determination, weekly benefit, benefit-year end, and quarters of earnings used for your base year. If you can provide that information, we can tell you if your benefits - state and federal - have been exhausted.
Or, call CA and ask where your CC (continuing claim) forms are so you can get your money. Good tips in the last couple of pages, here:
I received the same mentioned form above, but my situation is tricky. I landed a job Sept 17, 2013 and wanted to claim wages online with EDD Webcert. I didnt know I could not do that and so it asked me to send in the paper form. Well I didnt have that either, so I requested another paper form online and I havent seen one since. I requested it twice. Now I received this "invalid claim 1277." I am not sure what I do. I was let go from the job I was at because I was told I was "not a good fit" but I was paid for three weeks worth of work. I am not sure what to do in this case. I dont know where to report my wages and keep my UI benefits. Please any help would be appreciated.

If you got a 1277 letter, chances are your earlier claim has expired and needs to be recertified. CA is in a computer black hole these days. Requesting a claim form online is akin to doing nothing.
You need to call CA and speak to a rep. Read last few pages of each of these threads to determine the best number for you.
I have another question, I only worked at this job for about 2.5 weeks and of course had to claim my wages for that time. I was let go because they said I was "Not a good fit" for the position and they decided to let me go. I wasn't selling enough, so my question to you is, will my benefits still be in effect or am i ineligible. I know if you have been let go or fired you are still able to receive unemployment because I did not leave on my own accord but I wasn't let go either for misconduct like being tardy or stealing. What are your thoughts on this?

Not a good fit/failure to meet quota will not cause you to be denied.
THank you for all the great information. I wanted to ask you another question. Since I was let go from my last employer I received the extension of Benefits from my previous employer and then they sent me Unemployment insurance claim filed papers. The information on the new claim is wrong: I was let go on October 2 and not September 20 and the reason for my release is also invalid. Now I called and got through to tell them the information was wrong but they said I would correct this information on my phone interview which is on November 8th! Is this correct? she said she can or doesnt have the authority to change anything.
Also. I have been certifying my claims vis edd webcert and I have not received anything in regards to payments although I have been able to certify online. Is this because of the little time I worked and now they are holding everything and waiting until my interview again? Will I get back paid for the weeks I wasnt working? Thank you in advance for all of your help.
You won't receive any payments until after your interview.
Also, you had another claim which expired in September, did you not?
What was the actual bye date of that claim?
CA is now reopening the claim which expired and was recertified at your bye in September which may be why all the dates are wrong. Don't even try to figure out a rational reason for this. Correct the information at your interview.
Because you were terminated, an interview is required before you can resume EUC benefits on the first claim.
Wait for your interview.
CA continues to be a computer black hole. Others claiming regularly have no claim options on webcert at the moment. If you are still able to claim, consider yourself fortunate.
You need to reenroll in CalJobs because you are beginning a new benefit year.
You are beginning a new benefit year - CA wants to reinterview you.
I'm starting a new benefit year on Tier 3, but haven't received a letter telling me to re-enroll in Cal Jobs. Should I wait until I receive the letter? I know people can be denied benefits for not enrolling in Cal Jobs so I'm afraid to mess with my status. I am currently enrolled for my old benefit year and I update my resume and do job searches on the site regularly. I'm worried that with California's processes such a mess they may not realize they haven't sent me a letter telling me to re-enroll and might just automatically penalize me. Should I re-enroll now, or not mess with it?

When did you open your claim?
Have you been working while claiming?
Continuing on w/Tier 3 and new benefit year are oxymorons unless you have reverted to Tier 3 under a second claim.
You don't need to do anything more than update your resume as you've been doing all along. Even if you have a new claim, keep updating. That's good enough.
