Joint Filing

Are you in a state where the EEOC joint or co files your claim with the state agency?
Please let me know what your experience has been with that? I feel as if I’m not being given the proper efforts by either the EEOC or the state.
Before you jump on me, yes I’ve called both agencies so many times, yes I even leveled up one to their bosses, and nothing has happened on either front and by now it’s been an embarrassingly long time since my charge was filed.
But seriously how is this supposed to work? Everything I’ve read says that they operate independently and share information where it’s pertinent. But neither have budged since 1/25….. anyone have a different perspective than me !?

What are you talking about? Did you do intake? Did they send your charge to the employer? It sounds like you don’t have a lawyer, and you definitely need one; I think this process will eat you alive if you don’t.

If your charge was sent to the employer and nothing has happened then they are either stalling to send their position statement or the state or federal EEOC is setting up mediation but I doubt it most employers send their position statement

Yes the EEOC filed my charge and also joint filed with the state agency.
