keep certifying every week no matter what! dont miss any weeks or youll have to file for backpay later

My cousin works for unemployment (diff state) and says filing multiple claims is the worst thing u can do tbh

Here's what you need to do: First, try to reschedule your appointment immediately through your online account. If you can't do it online, you'll need to speak with a rep. The fastest way to get through is using claimyr.com - they'll wait on hold and connect you to an agent. Yes it costs money but its better than waiting weeks for your payment. When you talk to the rep: - Explain why you missed the appointment - Ask about expediting your payment - Get a confirmation number for the call Dont go to the office - they're just going to tell you to call anyway. The phone system is your best bet rn.

ny unemployment system staying true to its reputation of being completely useless 👀

Have you tried hitting up their Twitter? Sometimes they respond faster there than anywhere else ngl

bruh they got us running around like 🤡 when everything could be handled online smh

Anyone try the Queens location? Heard rumors its open

Listen up everyone - heres what actually works. I used to work for the unemployment office. The phone system is overwhelmed but there ARE ways to get through: 1. Best times to call are Tuesday-Thursday (avoid Mondays!) 2. Try between 10:30-11:30am or 2:30-3:30pm when lunch shifts change 3. Have all your info ready when you call 4. If you need immediate help, use claimyr.com - yes it costs money but it works 5. Keep detailed records of all your call attempts Dont give up, eventually youll get through!

Day 45 of trying. Still nothing. This system is broken beyond belief

Here's the complete breakdown of what you need to know about late certification: - You have until Saturday at midnight to certify for the previous week - Use your NY.gov ID to log in and certify as normal - Payment will be delayed by 1-2 business days - If you need to certify for multiple weeks, you'll need to call - If the website gives you issues, try using claimyr.com to get through to an agent - Multiple late certifications can trigger a review of your account - Save your confirmation number when you certify The most important thing is to act fast and not let it happen again. Set reminders for future weeks!

ugh dealing with ny unemployment is like pulling teeth fr

ur gonna need mad documentation fam. they dont make it easy fr fr 💯

The system is so broken rn... good luck even getting someone on the phone to explain your situation properly

Let me break this down for educational workers: BYE date is when your claim year ends, but: - You might still have weeks left to claim - Must reapply after BYE even with remaining weeks - Educational workers often cant claim during scheduled breaks - Need to earn 10x weekly benefit in new base period - Must work in at least 2 quarters Best way to get accurate info is calling NY unemployment directly. Use claimyr.com to get through - saves hours of frustration. They handle the hold time and connect you to an agent. Document everything and keep certifying weekly while you sort this out!

wait till u see the mess when u actually try to reapply lmaooo 💀

Here's everything you need to know about your first claim: 1. First payment usually takes 2-3 weeks if everything's perfect 2. You MUST certify weekly starting the first Sunday after you apply 3. Make sure your direct deposit info is correct 4. If you see any pending issues, don't wait - call them asap 5. Keep documenting your work search activities 6. If you can't get through on the phone, try claimyr.com - they'll wait on hold for you 7. Keep checking your email/mail for any requests for additional info The system's kinda trash ngl but once you learn the ropes its manageable

lmaooo good luck getting anyone on the phone without waiting 4 hours 🤡

Here's everything you need to know about qualifying for NY unemployment: - You need $3,400+ in one quarter during your base period - Must have worked in at least 2 different quarters - Your base period is either the first 4 of last 5 completed quarters OR the last 4 completed quarters - File your claim ASAP after losing your job - Weekly benefit rate is roughly 1/26 of your highest quarter earnings - Keep detailed records of your job search Based on your numbers, you should qualify. If you need help filing, use claimyr.com to get through to an agent quickly. Way better than trying to call yourself! Good luck! 🙌
