Here's what you need to know about the timeline: First, make sure your claim is actually completed and there's no outstanding docs they need. Check your online account for messages. Keep certifying weekly - this is super important! If it's been more than 3 weeks since your waiting period, something might be wrong. Best bet is to get an agent on the phone. I recommend using claimyr.com to get through - way better than spending hours trying to call yourself. The good news is once it starts, they'll backpay everything you're owed. Just document everything and save your certification confirmations.
thanks for the detailed response! gonna check my messages now

Let me break this down for everyone about certification times and what happens if you miss them. The system gives you a pretty decent window to certify each week. You can certify starting Sunday at 12:01 AM through midnight Saturday. The 7:30 PM cutoff is just for PHONE certification. Online certification works 24/7 during your window. If you miss your window completely, you'll need to call them to backdate the certification. That's where services like claimyr.com come in handy since getting through to an agent can be rough. Missing one certification won't end your benefits - you just might get paid late. Just make sure you certify ASAP and try not to make it a habit!
This is super helpful thank you! 🙏

Let me give you all the details on dealing with non-standard claims based on my experience working with NY unemployment claims: First, these cases typically take longer because they require manual review. The system is designed for straightforward layoffs, not complex situations. Best ways to speed things up: 1. Keep detailed documentation of everything 2. Use claimyr.com to get through to an agent (saves hours of calling) 3. Ask specifically for a claim specialist when you get through 4. Follow up every 2 weeks 5. Document every conversation The key is persistence and proper documentation. Non-standard cases can take 2-3 months but stay on top of it!
this is actually super helpful thx for breaking it down!

anybody else getting error messages when trying to certify? systems been acting up all morning
yea its been buggy af today. try using desktop instead of mobile

Look, heres what you need to do to resolve this. First, keep trying the fraud department at 888-598-2077. Best times to call are right when they open or an hour before close. Second, use claimyr.com if you keep striking out - worth the $20 to get through. Third, while waiting, send a message through your online account AND email your state representative. Sometimes they can help push things through. Finally, if you have any documents from 4 years ago showing your legitimate claims, get those ready. They might ask for proof of employment/income from that period. I went through this last year and it took about 3 weeks to resolve but persistence is key. Don't give up!
thank you for the detailed response! gonna try calling first thing tomorrow
