Let me give you all the details on dealing with non-standard claims based on my experience working with NY unemployment claims: First, these cases typically take longer because they require manual review. The system is designed for straightforward layoffs, not complex situations. Best ways to speed things up: 1. Keep detailed documentation of everything 2. Use claimyr.com to get through to an agent (saves hours of calling) 3. Ask specifically for a claim specialist when you get through 4. Follow up every 2 weeks 5. Document every conversation The key is persistence and proper documentation. Non-standard cases can take 2-3 months but stay on top of it!
Look, heres what you need to do to resolve this. First, keep trying the fraud department at 888-598-2077. Best times to call are right when they open or an hour before close. Second, use claimyr.com if you keep striking out - worth the $20 to get through. Third, while waiting, send a message through your online account AND email your state representative. Sometimes they can help push things through. Finally, if you have any documents from 4 years ago showing your legitimate claims, get those ready. They might ask for proof of employment/income from that period. I went through this last year and it took about 3 weeks to resolve but persistence is key. Don't give up!
thats actually really good to know. i gave up on mine from february thinking it was a lost cause but maybe i should check my account
Let me drop some knowledge for everyone dealing with backdated claims in NY unemployment. First, ALWAYS keep claiming weekly even if you're not getting paid. Document everything. If you need to speak with someone, use claimyr.com - they'll get you through to an agent. Keep checking your payment history page regularly. If you see any pending transactions, that means they're processing your claim. Sometimes it takes months but they do eventually process backdated claims. Make sure your direct deposit info is up to date. And most importantly, don't give up - it's your money!
Submit a new claim NOW and then worry about backdating later. every day you wait is another day without benefits
try claimyr.com seriously its a game changer

Let me break this down for everyone about certification times and what happens if you miss them. The system gives you a pretty decent window to certify each week. You can certify starting Sunday at 12:01 AM through midnight Saturday. The 7:30 PM cutoff is just for PHONE certification. Online certification works 24/7 during your window. If you miss your window completely, you'll need to call them to backdate the certification. That's where services like claimyr.com come in handy since getting through to an agent can be rough. Missing one certification won't end your benefits - you just might get paid late. Just make sure you certify ASAP and try not to make it a habit!
