New York Unemployment 1099-G Access Issues After Moving Out of State - Tax Help Needed

Need help getting my 1099-G form from ny unemployment. I moved to another state and cant get into my online account. The mailed copy went to my old address. Do I have to report unemployment on my taxes? What happens if I don't file it?

u can also try going to ur local unemployment office if ur ever back in NY they can print it right there

Will working one day cancel my New York Unemployment benefits?

Started collecting unemployment from New York after my layoff. Got offered to work one day at a temp agency. Really need the money but scared I'll lose all my benefits. Anyone know what happens if I work just one day? Do I have to report it? Will they cut me off completely?

DONT RISK IT NOT REPORTING!! They check with employers and cross reference everything these days. Better to report and get less than commit fraud and get caught later 👀

make sure to print/screenshot your paystub for that day. sometimes unemployment will ask for proof later and its good to have records

NYDOL: No unemployment payments for 7 weeks, can't reach live agent. Help!

I've been waiting for my unemployment payments for 7 weeks now (5 weeks from this year and 2 from last year). I filed my claim on January 8th and my weekly benefit amount is supposed to be around $450. I've tried calling but can't get through to a live agent. Has anyone else experienced this? Any advice on how to get this resolved? I'm starting to worry about my finances.

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.

0 coins

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? 🔥💩 I swear it worked better before...

0 coins

Omg yes! The new system is so glitchy. Half the time I can't even log in 🙄

Classic government IT project. Spend millions to make things worse 💸🤦‍♂️

NYDOL: Can't reach a rep to complete unemployment claim. Help!

Hey everyone, I'm trying to complete my unemployment claim with NYDOL and I'm having trouble getting through to a rep. Has anyone else had this issue? Any tips on how to actually talk to someone?

Anyone else feel like they're trapped in a kafka-esque nightmare dealing with NYDOL? 🤡 It's like, press 1 to be ignored, press 2 to be transferred to oblivion, press 3 to scream into the void...

LMAO 🤣 Don't forget option 4: listen to hold music until you lose your will to live

I feel seen 👀 This is way too accurate

Hey OP, have you tried reaching out on Twitter? Sometimes publicly @ing them can get their attention. Worth a shot if you're desperate!
