This is why we need a complete overhaul of the unemployment system. It's not just you, OP. Thousands of people are struggling with these issues every day. We need to put pressure on our representatives to fix this broken system!
Have you tried reaching out to your local representative? Sometimes they can help push things through or at least get you in touch with the right person.
This happened to me last year! It's such a pain. Make sure you emphasize to EDD that you're reapplying for PFL after your disability claim ended. They should have a process for this, but sometimes the reps don't know about it. Ask to speak to a supervisor if the first person you talk to seems confused.

Quick question for anyone who knows - if I pick up some freelance work, do I have to report that? And will it affect my benefits?

•Yes, you definitely need to report any income. It might reduce your benefits for that week, but you could still be eligible for partial payment.

PSA: Watch out for scams! There are a lot of people trying to take advantage of folks on unemployment. Never give out your personal info to anyone claiming to be from the unemployment office unless you're 100% sure it's legit.
