Can I delete and restart my entire DEO claim? Submitted with wrong information

Unfortunately, you can't delete a claim once it's been submitted in the CONNECT system. DEO doesn't give us that option. You'll need to call them directly to explain the situation and request corrections. Be prepared to wait FOREVER though - their phone lines are basically a joke.

You can't delete a claim, but you can handle this. Don't panic! The best approach is to submit a message through your CONNECT inbox explaining all the corrections needed. Be very specific about each error (wrong dates, incorrect earnings, etc). Also, keep trying to reach a live agent who can help make these corrections right away. The sooner you address this, the better.

call them n explain wat happened. they can fix it for u. happened 2 me last month when i typed my last employer name wrong. took like 45 mins on hold but they fixed it no problem

This just happened to my cousin last week! He got through to a claims specialist who corrected everything. Don't worry too much - they see this all the time. The DEO staff can fix most errors if you can actually reach them.

I had success using Claimyr to get through to DEO when I had to correct information on my claim. Their service connects you with a DEO agent without the endless busy signals and disconnects. I was about to give up after trying for days, but with Claimyr I got through in about 20 minutes. They have a video that shows how it works: https://youtu.be/UzW_hbUy-ss?si=zORd51jeq1GX5Ldj and their website is claimyr.com if you want to check it out.

Yes, it definitely worked for me. The agent I spoke with was able to correct several errors on my claim, including wrong employment dates. Make sure you have all your correct information ready when you call - exact employment dates, correct earnings, proper separation reason, etc. The more organized you are, the faster they can help fix everything.

While you're waiting to get through to DEO, make sure you continue claiming your weeks if you're eligible. Even with errors on your application, you should still claim weeks by your scheduled dates. If you miss claiming weeks while trying to fix the application errors, you could lose benefits for those weeks. The corrections can be applied retroactively, but missed claim weeks usually can't be recovered.

my friend put wrong job info too and she just waited till they called her for fact finding interview and fixed it then. took like 3 weeks tho

I'd also recommend documenting every attempt you make to contact DEO. Keep a log with dates, times, and what happened (busy signal, disconnected, etc.). If there are any issues with your claim later, this documentation shows you were proactively trying to correct the errors. Also, check if your local CareerSource office can help - sometimes they have direct lines to DEO staff.

Update: I finally got through to DEO! I used the Claimyr service that was suggested here and got connected to an agent in about 30 minutes. The representative was super helpful and made all the corrections to my employment dates, earnings, and separation reason. She said it happens all the time and not to worry. My claim is now being processed correctly. Thanks everyone for all your help and suggestions!
