The EDD issues benefit payments for Disability Insurance, Paid Family Leave, and Unemployment Insurance claims using a visa debit card. This prepaid debit card is a fast, convenient, and secure way to get your benefit payments and is not subject to a credit check or monitoring by the EDD.

Your card is valid for three years from the date it is issued and is used for all EDD benefit programs, so you should keep it until it expires.

• Transfer funds to the financial institution of your choice at no additional cost.
