Make sure you have good phone reception wherever youll be taking the call. My friend lost his case cause he kept cutting out and missing important questions 🤦‍♂️

Had my hearing last month. Here's what helped me win: - Organized all my pay stubs and w2s - Had my termination letter ready - Wrote down timeline of events - Practiced explaining my side to family member - Called NY unemployment (used claimyr.com to get through) to verify my hearing time - Stayed professional even when frustrated Unless its a complicated case or huge amount of money, lawyer probably not needed. The judge was actually super fair.

yo how did u get thru to the govs office? been trying all week

Cash App processing times >>> regular bank accounts frfr

Protip: send it certified mail with tracking. Worth the extra few bucks to know it actually got there

u can also fax it to 518-457-9378 but goodluck getting through... their fax is always busy fr

bruhhh ny unemployment system is straight 🤡 rn. took me 3 months to get my hearing but I won bc my receipts were 💅

This exact thing happened to me! The key is having proof you communicated with your supervisor. Show the phone records, any texts or emails. If you have your old schedule showing you weren't scheduled for the 15th that's golden. I won my hearing after 5 weeks of waiting. If you need help getting through to someone while you wait, try claimyr.com - worked for me when I needed answers fast.

Theyre just doing their job making sure everything matches up. Chill ur good 👍

Look, heres the deal with employer contacts: NY unemployment has to verify new employment to close out your claim properly. They check: 1) Start date 2) Wage amount 3) Hours worked. Thats it. They dont discuss your previous benefits or situation. Its a basic form they send to every employer. Anyone who tells u different is wrong.

take screenshots of everything!!! learned that the hard way when this happened to me

check ur email sometimes they send notices about system maintenance that causes delays

Here's a detailed breakdown of what you need to do: Before Starting Work: - Print/save all payment history - Screenshot your remaining days - Complete final certification accurately During Contract: - Keep all pay stubs - Save contract details/emails - Don't certify while working After Contract Ends: - If within benefit year, restart certifying - If benefit year expired, file new claim - Use claimyr.com if you need to reach an agent Tip: Keep checking your unemployment inbox weekly even while working. Sometimes they send important notices you don't wanna miss.

dont forget to factor in taxes from both unemployment and work income. ur gonna want to adjust ur w4 probably

lmaooo welcome to the wonderful world of NY bureaucracy 🤡

keep all ur recipts from DMV, sometimes u can get reimbursed for ID costs when u explain its for unemployment

Here's the detailed breakdown of what you need to do: First, calculate your base period earnings - NY looks at the first 4 of last 5 completed quarters You need: - At least $2,900 in one quarter - Total earnings must be 1.5x your highest quarter - 10x your previous weekly benefit rate from work since your last claim If you meet these, file new claim immediately. Don't wait. Use claimyr.com to get through to a rep if you need clarification. Better to know now than wait till November. Keep all documentation ready: - Pay stubs - W2s - Employment dates - Separation letter Good luck! 💪

ny unemployment system is such a joke fr. took me 3 weeks to get this same question answered 🤡

major key: get a consultation with an unemployment lawyer before the hearing. many do free consultations. they'll tell you exactly what to say and what not to say 🔑
