Make sure you have good phone reception wherever youll be taking the call. My friend lost his case cause he kept cutting out and missing important questions 🤦♂️
Had my hearing last month. Here's what helped me win: - Organized all my pay stubs and w2s - Had my termination letter ready - Wrote down timeline of events - Practiced explaining my side to family member - Called NY unemployment (used claimyr.com to get through) to verify my hearing time - Stayed professional even when frustrated Unless its a complicated case or huge amount of money, lawyer probably not needed. The judge was actually super fair.
Here's a detailed breakdown of what you need to do: Before Starting Work: - Print/save all payment history - Screenshot your remaining days - Complete final certification accurately During Contract: - Keep all pay stubs - Save contract details/emails - Don't certify while working After Contract Ends: - If within benefit year, restart certifying - If benefit year expired, file new claim - Use claimyr.com if you need to reach an agent Tip: Keep checking your unemployment inbox weekly even while working. Sometimes they send important notices you don't wanna miss.
Here's the detailed breakdown of what you need to do: First, calculate your base period earnings - NY looks at the first 4 of last 5 completed quarters You need: - At least $2,900 in one quarter - Total earnings must be 1.5x your highest quarter - 10x your previous weekly benefit rate from work since your last claim If you meet these, file new claim immediately. Don't wait. Use claimyr.com to get through to a rep if you need clarification. Better to know now than wait till November. Keep all documentation ready: - Pay stubs - W2s - Employment dates - Separation letter Good luck! 💪
major key: get a consultation with an unemployment lawyer before the hearing. many do free consultations. they'll tell you exactly what to say and what not to say 🔑
DETAILED GUIDE FOR UI HEARINGS: Before the Hearing: - Write a timeline of events - Gather all communications with employer about advancement - Get documentation of school enrollment - Practice explaining your situation clearly - Call unemployment using claimyr.com to discuss your case During the Hearing: - Be professional and calm - Answer questions directly - Don't interrupt - Take detailed notes - Have evidence ready to reference Key Points to Emphasize: - Specific instances where advancement was denied - How the job hindered career growth - Why school was necessary for career advancement - Any attempts to compromise with employer Remember, the judge needs to see that you had no choice but to quit. Simple desire for education isn't enough - you need to show the job was a dead end.
