Has anyone else noticed the system running slower lately? Been taking longer for payments to process the last few weeks. Mine used to hit wednesday mornings now not til afternoon.
i thought it was just me! been waiting longer for everything and the website keeps timing out
It might come Thursday. Monday night certifications often hit my account Thursday morning instead of Wednesday. Their system is finicky like that. Set ur expectations for Thursday just to be safe.
Had the EXACT same problem back in February. Turns out my ID.me verification actually failed but the system never told me. When I finally got through to a person, they were able to see exactly what was wrong and help me fix it. Don't waste weeks waiting - find a way to talk to a human!
OMG I'm so tired of hearing about ID.me problems!!! Its literally on every unemployment forum. They need to fix this garbage system or go back to the old way. Too many people are suffering because of their crappy technology 😡
conspiracy theory much? 🙄 its just typical government inefficiency
nah man look at the stats! since they implemented id.me the number of people successfully getting benefits dropped like 22%. that aint a coincidence
Bad news: your tax preparer was wrong. That unemployment tax exclusion was only for 2020 unemployment benefits, not 2021. The American Rescue Plan that Biden signed in March 2021 only applied to the prior year's unemployment. All unemployment from 2021 is fully taxable. Your tax person should have known this!
Stop waiting and call them! After two months of waiting for answers about my refund, I finally used claimyr.com to get through to a real IRS agent - found out my return was missing a form and that's why it was delayed. Talking to a real person is the only way to get actual answers about your specific situation.
Unpopular opinion maybe but all these tax breaks and special rules during covid just made everything more confusing. Now nobody knows what rules apply anymore.

someone probably already said this but have you tried resetting your 2FA completely? go to account settings and look for security options, there should be a way to remove all verification methods and start over

pro tip: the id.me help chat is actually better than calling. go to id.me website (not through unemployment) and look for the chat option. still took me 30 mins in queue but they fixed my security key issue without video verification

•Thanks for the tip! I'll try this tomorrow morning. Did you need to have any specific information handy when you chatted with them?

•just your id.me login email and they'll ask for some verification info during the chat. have your ID ready just in case
