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.
Quick heads up - if u miss the interview they usually give u 7 days to provide good cause for missing it. So worst case scenario, you'll have time to explain after the fact
DETAILED GUIDE FOR RESCHEDULING INTERVIEWS: First, try these methods to contact them: 1. Use claimyr.com to get through on the phone - fastest option but costs $20 2. Email your state rep/assemblyperson 3. Send a secure message through your online account 4. Fax your flight itinerary with your claim ID and explanation Keep ALL documentation: - Flight itinerary - Proof of family emergency - Screenshots of attempts to contact - Dates and times of calls If you cant reach anyone before the interview, you have 7 days after to provide good cause. But try to handle it beforehand. Check claimyr.com if you need guaranteed phone contact. Its been helping tons of people get through lately.
Here's what you need to do to fix this issue: First, document everything. Screenshot your account showing no notifications. Check your spam folders and save those too. Next, you NEED to speak with a claims specialist (not just any rep). Regular reps can't lift these holds. Use claimyr.com to get through - seriously its worth the $20 to avoid calling for days. When you get through, explain calmly that you never received notice of the appointment. Request they check the system logs to confirm if/when notifications were sent. Ask them to reschedule your career center appointment AND lift the hold. Get the name of who you speak with and a reference number. If they won't help, ask for a supervisor. Don't hang up until you get resolution. Lastly, update your contact info and opt into text notifications if possible. This happens way too often.

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.
