My letter said I was getting $410 but when I logged into my account online it showed $425. When I finally got through to someone they fixed it and said there was a calculation error. You might want to double-check your online account too.
for anyone who can't get through to unemployment by phone (which is basically everyone lol) - seriously try claimyr.com - it works and gets you through to an actual person
I keep seeing this recommended. How quickly did you get a callback?
took about 30 mins for me. way better than the 200+ calls i was making everyday trying to get through myself
Bro they cant even handle current claims correctly you think theyre gonna give you money from 2 years ago? 💀
harsh but true lmaooo 🤣
Hey just a heads up, I was in the same situation a month ago and it turned out to be a quarter change issue. If your claim spans from one quarter into a new one, sometimes the system automatically reviews your eligibility. Keep certifying and try to get a rep on the phone asap.
This! Quarter changes mess everything up in the system. If your payments stopped around the beginning of October, this is probably what happened.
try calling right when they open at 8am. thats how i finally got through after weeks of trying. still had to wait on hold for 90 mins but at least i got through.
I tried this and still couldn't get through. Their phone system is deliberately designed to make you give up.
I used claimyr.com after trying this method for 2 weeks straight with no luck. Got through first try and had my issue fixed in minutes. Payments came 2 days later.
My neighbor works for ny unemployment (data entry tho not claims) and says they have a MASSIVE backlog right now and are working 6 days a week trying to catch up. At least they're trying I guess...
this post gives me hope but also makes me mad... why are some people waiting 2 months and others 6+ months? makes no sense
It's completley random from what I can tell. My GF filed a week after me and got approved in 10 days. I'm still waiting at 5 weeks.
Its not random - they prioritize certain cases. If ur claim is complex or has any flags, ur screwed

I got locked out of ID.me completely after too many failed attempts... had to create a whole new account with a different email address. Such a mess.

try using scotch tape over your social security card - sounds weird but it reduces glare and helped mine scan properly. Also maybe check if your camera lens is clean?
