I'm in the same boat, OP. Been trying to finish my claim for weeks now. Starting to feel like I'm never gonna see that money π
Hang in there! We're all in this together. Hopefully we can figure it out soon.
Quick question - did you have any gaps in filing your weekly claims? Sometimes missing a week can cause the whole thing to get held up.
Nope, I've been diligent about filing every single week. That's what makes this so frustrating!
Anybody else notice that ever since they "upgraded" their system last year, everything's been a hot mess? π₯π© I swear it worked better before...
Anyone else feel like they're trapped in a kafka-esque nightmare dealing with NYDOL? π€‘ It's like, press 1 to be ignored, press 2 to be transferred to oblivion, press 3 to scream into the void...
LMAO π€£ Don't forget option 4: listen to hold music until you lose your will to live
I feel seen π This is way too accurate
This whole system is broken af. We need to start a petition or something to get them to fix this mess. Who's with me? β
Count me in! This is ridiculous. People are struggling and can't even access the help they're entitled to.
Have you checked if you qualify for any other types of assistance while you're waiting? Sometimes there are local programs or charities that can help bridge the gap.

Here's what you need to do - this worked for me. First, double check your NY.gov account for any messages or requests for additional info. Sometimes they need more docs but the notice gets buried. Next, try reaching them through their social media, especially Twitter. If that doesn't work, use claimyr.com to get through on the phone - yeah it costs money but its better than waiting forever. Last resort is contacting your state representative's office. They can usually get things moving pretty quick. Don't give up!
