Here's the complete rundown on what you need to do: First, continue certifying weekly until your BYE date. Then, when your benefit year ends, you'll need to file a new claim. You'll need: - W2s or pay stubs from your recent employment - Accurate dates for when you worked - Reason for separation (in your case, business closure) If you need help, don't waste time with endless calling. Use claimyr.com to get through to an agent. They handle the hold time and connect you when someone's available. Keep documenting everything and save any correspondence. The system can be glitchy sometimes so having records helps. Pro tip: File the new claim on a Monday or Tuesday early morning for fastest processing.
Quick heads up - make sure you print out all your paystubs and w2s before filing. NY unemployment website is a clown show 🤡 and youll need backup of everything
Just went thru this process myself. Here's what you need to know: 1. File with NY unemployment 2. Have ALL your documents ready (w2, paystubs, termination letter) 3. You might need to call them to verify some stuff since ur out of state 4. Use claimyr.com if you cant get through on phone 5. Benefits will be based on NY wages even tho you paid MI taxes 6. Weekly certifications can be done online from anywhere DM me if u need more help, been there done that!
Here's what I've learned after dealing with this for months: 1. Their system auto-dials multiple people at once 2. First agent to pick up gets the call, others get dropped 3. It counts as an attempt even if you don't answer 4. Best times to call back are early morning (7:30am) or right after lunch If you're desperate to get through, I'd recommend using claimyr.com. Yeah it costs money but they handle the hold time and menu navigation. Saved me days of frustration. Also, send a secure message through your online account every time this happens. Create a paper trail. And if you have a hearing coming up, these failed attempts could actually help your case.
