Have you tried reaching out to your local Small Business Administration office? They might have some resources or advice for self-employed folks dealing with unemployment stuff.
Here's what you need to do: 1. Double-check all your info: Make sure you're entering everything EXACTLY as it appears on your official documents. 2. Try a different browser: Sometimes it's just a technical glitch. 3. Call the helpline: Yes, it sucks, but it's often the only way. Try early morning or late afternoon for shorter wait times. 4. Use the online chat if available: Sometimes faster than calling. 5. Contact your local representative: They can often help push things through. 6. As a last resort, visit an office in person: Bring ALL your documents. Remember, persistence is key. Don't give up! The system is frustrating but you'll get through eventually. Good luck!

Pro tip: if you're having trouble getting through on the phone, try calling the employer line instead. Sometimes they're less busy and can still help or transfer you.

Anyone else notice that the system always seems to "crash" right when you finally get through? I swear they do it on purpose 🤬
