New York Unemployment showing 2024 date for 2020 claims - System Error?

Just logged into my unemployment account and seeing dates from 2024 showing up for claims from 2020. This has to be some kind of system error right? Anyone else seeing this weird date issue on their account? Getting worried about this since everything was fine before.

my cousin works for the state (not unemployment) and says there doing updates to fight fraud or sumthing

New York Unemployment hearing after quitting job - no lawyer or witnesses

I quit my job to go back to school since I wasn't getting any advancement opportunities even though I have a degree and met all my performance goals. I have a phone hearing coming up but no attorney or witnesses. Not sure if I should even bother with the hearing.

Seriously consider showing up with any documentation you have about trying to advance - emails to HR, your supervisor, performance reviews, job postings you applied to internally. The more paper trail you have the better your chances. But ngl its gonna be an uphill battle 🏔️

Denied unemployment after workers comp - should I request recalculation to extend my base period by 2 quarters?

I was on workers comp from March 2023 to January 2024 and got a new teaching job in February. Applied for unemployment and got denied for not having enough wages. Never included workers comp on my application because I didnt think it counted as wages. After I received my denial letter, I was looking through the unemployment guidelines and found some information that might help my case. The denial letter mentioned I "do not qualify using either base period" but I'm seeing that there might be exceptions for people like me who were on Workers' Compensation. According to the unemployment information I found: "If you do not qualify using either base period AND You received Workers' Compensation payments OR Volunteer Firefighters' benefits during the Basic base period, THEN We may extend the Basic base period back up to 2 calendar quarters. This will depend on how many base period quarters you received these benefits." Since I was on workers comp for almost a full year (March 2023 to January 2024), I think this extension might apply to me. The document also mentions: "If you qualify using the Basic base period, we use that period to establish your claim. If you do not qualify in the Basic base period, we will calculate using the Alternate base period." I also noticed something about being able to request recalculation: "You can ask us to recalculate your rate using the Alternate base period. You have 10 days from the date of the initial notice to make the request." My denial letter came last week, so I think I'm still within that 10-day window to request a recalculation. The document also mentions: "If you do not qualify in any of these base periods, AND You worked for pay in the calendar quarter when you filed, AND You are still unemployed after that quarter ends, AND You think that you may qualify using the latest work, THEN You should apply again for benefits after this calendar quarter ends." Since I started my teaching job in February but it ended (I was a substitute), should I wait until the end of this quarter to apply again? Anyone know if workers comp counts toward my base period calculation? And does anyone have experience with getting those 2 extra quarters added to the base period for workers comp cases as mentioned in this document? Really need help figuring this out as I'm struggling financially right now.

bruh the unemployment system is so broken. why do they make everything so complicated 🤮

New York Unemployment: Local Council Member Fast-Tracked My ID.me Issues

Called my local Staten Island council member about my unemployment application being stuck with ID.me issues. They contacted unemployment directly and got everything fixed within days. Saved me months of waiting and frustration. You dont even need to visit the office.
