Quick question - did you receive any kind of confirmation when you first filed? If not, there's a chance your claim didn't go through properly.
Yeah, I got an email confirmation. That's why I'm so confused about the lack of updates since then.

Hmm, that is weird. Might be worth double-checking all the info you submitted. One wrong digit can hold things up.

Plot twist: what if we all show up at the unemployment office with lawn chairs and snacks? Make it a sit-in until they process our claims π
lmao im down. we can live stream it too π₯

Careful, they might hire us as new claims processors on the spot! π

Has anyone tried contacting their state representative? I've heard sometimes they can help speed things up.
Im in the exact same situation. its been 10 weeks for me and i havent herd anything. this is rediculous. how are we supposed to survive????
10 weeks?! That's insane. Have you tried calling them?

ive tried calling everyday for the past month. cant get thru to anyone. its like there not even trying to help us

Have you reached out to your local representative? Sometimes they can help push things along.
I hadn't thought of that. How do I find out who my rep is?
19d
Just google '[your state] find my representative'. Most have websites where you can submit inquiries. Worth a shot!

This is why we need to overhaul the entire unemployment system. It's a joke that people have to wait months to get the help they need. π€
Preach! π The whole thing is held together with duct tape and prayers at this point

Have you checked if theres any missing information or errors on your claim? Sometimes small mistakes can hold up the whole process.
Hang in there, OP. I know it's tough, but it will come through eventually. Sending good vibes your way! β€οΈ
Thank you, I really appreciate the support. It means a lot right now.

idk if this helps, but I started a side gig doing doordash while waiting for my unemployment to come thru. It's not much, but it's something to keep me afloat.
That's smart. How's the money with that? Been thinking about trying it myself.

It's hit or miss tbh. Some days are good, others not so much. But it's better than nothing π€·ββοΈ

Has anyone tried the new chatbot on the unemployment website? I heard it can sometimes help with simple issues.
Yeah, I tried it. It's useless for anything beyond basic questions. Just another way for them to avoid talking to us directly π

Plot twist: the unemployment office is actually run by squirrels and they're just really behind on their acorn paperwork πΏοΈπ
LOL this made me laugh way harder than it should have π€£

Explains why they're so NUTS about documentation! π₯π

have you tried faxing your documents? I know it sounds old school, but sometimes it gets processed faster than online submissions. worth a shot! π€·ββοΈ
This is why we need UBI. The current system is broken beyond repair. π€
idk about that. UBI sounds good in theory but who's gonna pay for it? We're already drowning in taxes

There are lots of proposed ways to fund UBI, like redirecting current welfare spending, implementing a VAT, or taxing big tech. It's not as impossible as it seems!

If you want to speak with and ASAP, just click the green button, enter in your phone callback number, and wait for your call. That's it!
To all those having trouble reaching a human at Unemployment. I just ran across this video that gave me a shortcut to reach a human. Hope it helps! https://youtu.be/pkaHKRBb294
