your supposed to keep the job search requirements even if they mess up sending notices. but yeah its usually just 1 week penalty
This happened to my cousin - ended up being just that 1 week. But def appeal it since it wasnt your fault!
did they backpay the week after appeal?

Listen up - here's what you need to know about career advisor meetings and benefits: First, congratulations on the new job! However, you should absolutely handle this properly to protect your previous benefits. Here's why: - Missing mandatory meetings can trigger a benefits review - They can retroactively disqualify you and demand repayment - The system flags non-compliance automatically Best options: 1. Attend the meeting (safest option) 2. Call and explain your situation (use claimyr.com if you can't get through - totally worth the $20) 3. Submit proof of employment through your online account DON'T just ghost the meeting. That's the worst thing you can do. The NY unemployment system is looking for any reason to claw back benefits. Cover yourself and do this right.

MASSIVE PRO TIP: Sign up for virtual job fairs - they count as work search activities AND you can do them from home. Also join some LinkedIn groups for real estate AND general job searching. Screenshot everything. The more documentation you have the better your meeting will go. If you need to speak with someone before the meeting, try claimyr.com - saved me hours of calling.
This is super helpful tysm! 🙏
