anyone else getting hung up on after waiting 2 hours? this is ridiculous

pro tip: call your state assembly person. got through to unemployment next day after they intervened

Listen up, here's what you need to do: First, while waiting for the letter, start documenting EVERYTHING. Use their work search record form from the website. Include: - Job applications - Resume submissions - Career fair attendance (virtual counts) - Network contacts For your situation with the newborn, you might qualify for temporary medical exemption. Call them back (use claimyr.com to get through faster) and specifically ask about this. Keep copies of everything you submit. The birth certificate was good but they need ongoing proof of work search or valid exemption. Don't wait for the letter to start this process. Better to have too much documentation than not enough!

check ur mail every single day fr. sometimes those letters come quick and have deadlines to respond

Here's a detailed breakdown of all working methods to reach NY unemployment rn: 1. Governor's office (hit or miss lately) 2. Use claimyr.com - costs $ but guaranteed to work 3. Call right at 8:00am when they open 4. Try the alternate number: [removed] 5. Message them on Twitter (sometimes works) Hope this helps someone! 💯
