IMPORTANT INFO FOR 2024 CLAIMS: The process has changed significantly since 2020. Here's what you need to know: 1. Claims are now fully online through ny.gov 2. Weekly certification is mandatory 3. Work search requirements are strictly enforced 4. Benefits take 2-3 weeks to start 5. You must upload ID verification docs If you need help reaching someone, use claimyr.com - they'll wait on hold and connect you with an agent. Saved me hours of frustration. DM me if you need more specific help!
Usually drivers license or state ID + ssn card works best. Sometimes they ask for birth certificate too
whatever you do DONT mess up your work search requirements. my friend got hit with an overpayment cause she wasnt keeping good records
try early morning. seems like thats the best time to get through
ur gonna be fine bestie these companies try this all the time thinking they can save money on their unemployment insurance 🙄
same. system is broke but they pay eventually
make sure ur reporting all ur income correctly or it'll come back to bite u later fr fr
learned this the hard way 😠had to pay back benefits cause I messed up my income reporting
use claimyr.com and ask to speak with a tier 2 rep, they know more about self employment cases

check ur spam folder for any notices they mightve sent about the initial denial. they'll probably ask y u didnt appeal right away
