NYDOL unemployment claim delayed with no notices - what's going on?

Hey everyone, I'm having trouble with my unemployment claim. It's been delayed and I'm not sure why. I've submitted all the required documents and verified my identity, but still nothing. I haven't received any notices from NYDOL either. Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas on what could be causing the hold-up or what I should do next?

Have you tried reaching out on Twitter? Sometimes they respond faster there.

Have you tried faxing your documents? I know it sounds old school, but I've heard it can sometimes get faster attention.

NYDOL monetary determination letter says I don't qualify despite 20 years of work. Help!

Hey everyone, I'm having some issues with my unemployment claim and could use some advice. I've been working consistently for 20 years, but I just got a monetary determination letter saying I don't qualify due to my earnings during the base quarters. This doesn't make sense to me. Has anyone else dealt with this? Also, does anyone know how long it usually takes for a claim to be processed? And how do they calculate the weekly benefit amount? I'm trying to figure out what I might get if I'm approved.

have u tried reaching out to ur local state rep? sometimes they can help push things thru faster

Sent hearing request 3 months ago, no response. What to do? (NYDOL)

Hey everyone, I'm in a bit of a pickle here. I sent in a hearing request about 3 months ago and I haven't heard anything back. I'm starting to get worried. Has anyone else experienced this kind of delay? Any advice on what I should do next? I'm thinking about calling them, but I'm not sure if that'll help or just waste my time.

Have you checked if there's been any policy changes or updates that might affect your case? Sometimes they make changes and don't communicate them well.

0 coins

I haven't, actually. Where would I find that kind of info?

Try checking the official unemployment website for your state. They usually have a news or updates section. Also, follow their social media accounts if they have any.

Unemployment claim stuck in pending status for 5 weeks - no answers from NYDOL. Help!

Hey everyone, I'm at my wits end here. My unemployment claim has been stuck in pending status for 5 weeks now and I can't get any answers. Has anyone else dealt with this? Any advice on how to get through to someone or speed up the process? I'm really starting to worry about bills piling up.

Anyone else notice that ever since they "upgraded" the unemployment system last month, everything's been even slower? Great job, govt 👏👏👏

Omg yes! I thought it was just me. The new system is hot garbage 🗑️🔥

Pro tip: if u cant get thru on the main line, try calling one of the employer-specific numbers and then ask to be transfered to claims. Worked for me!
