I got this message in my inbox “ We identified an issue and may need to determine your eligibility or verify your information.” but I already received my on my card. Can they take the back off my if I’ve already received it?

Yes they may want it back cause they can suspect its an overpayment and you don't want to get in trouble

Why are all the so rude! I’ve called multiple times in the last 6 weeks. I applied for a regular UI January 2020, then was approved for the CTB program () until May 2022. I was told by multiple that I would receive my monthly benefits until May 2022 but now today they are telling me I’ve exhausted my claim. Out of spite these are transferring me to random people who won’t help me. I don’t know what to do? I spent over $100 using claimyr to call and I don’t know who else can help.

I found a way to solve reaching representatives quickly, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQxFh-LEye0

How long is it taking to get a phone interview for a regular U I claim?

I have been waiting 3 months and still have not had my interview scheduled.

Yeah that's what I did. I reached out to my assemblyman to see what can be done.

When tier 2 or an never help, next step is an assembly member then appeal.
