If I could give 10 stars I would
If I could give 10 stars I would If I could give 10 stars I would Such an amazing service so needed during the times when EDD almost never picks up Claimyr gets me on the phone with EDD every time without fail faster. A much needed service without Claimyr I would have never received the payment I needed to support me during my postpartum recovery. Thank you so much Claimyr!
Really made a difference
Really made a difference, save me time and energy from going to a local office for making the call.
Worth not wasting your time calling for hours.
Was a bit nervous or untrusting at first, but my calls went thru. First time the wait was a bit long but their customer chat line on their page was helpful and put me at ease that I would receive my call. Today my call dropped because of EDD and Claimyr heard my concern on the same chat and another call was made within the hour.
An incredibly helpful service
An incredibly helpful service! Got me connected to a CA EDD agent without major hassle (outside of EDD's agents dropping calls – which Claimyr has free protection for). If you need to file a new claim and can't do it online, pay the $ to Claimyr to get the process started. Absolutely worth it!
Consistent,frustration free, quality Service.
Used this service a couple times now. Before I'd call 200 times in less than a weak frustrated as can be. But using claimyr with a couple hours of waiting i was on the line with an representative or on hold. Dropped a couple times but each reconnected not long after and was mission accomplished, thanks to Claimyr.
IT WORKS!! Not a scam!
I tried for weeks to get thru to EDD PFL program with no luck. I gave this a try thinking it may be a scam. OMG! It worked and They got thru within an hour and my claim is going to finally get paid!! I upgraded to the $60 call. Best $60 spent!

Ugh the NYS Department of Labor system is so messed up. They disqualify people left and right and then make it impossible to fix their mistakes. Hope you can get this resolved but honestly don't get your hopes up too high.

The whole NYS Department of Labor system is a JOKE! They process everything slowly on purpose to save money. My claim has been 'under review' for three weeks now with ZERO communication. Meanwhile bills keep coming and they act like we don't matter!!
I feel your frustration but usually there's a specific reason for delays even if they don't communicate it well.

The determination process is so frustrating! They have 30 days to make a decision but often take longer. In your case, since it's been 2.5 weeks, you're still within the normal timeframe unfortunately. The fact that you don't see any document requests is actually a good sign - means they probably have everything they need and are just processing. Keep filing those weekly claims no matter what!
same boat here, filed 3 weeks ago and still pending determination. this system is broken, takes forever to get help and even longer to get answers. meanwhile rent is due and bills keep coming
Hang in there, I know it's stressful but most claims do get approved eventually. Just keep documenting everything and filing weekly.

Wait is adjudication the same thing as an appeal? I'm so confused by all these terms and my claim has been sitting there for 3 weeks now with no updates
No, adjudication is when they're reviewing your claim to make sure you meet eligibility requirements. An appeal is what you file if they deny your claim and you disagree with their decision. Adjudication usually takes 2-4 weeks depending on how complex your case is.

wait so if my employer pays unemployment taxes does that mean they can see how much money im getting each week?? this is making me paranoid

•No, employers don't get details about your specific benefit amounts or payment dates. They just get notified that you filed a claim and can respond about your eligibility.

The whole system is funded by employer contributions but administered by the state. It's designed to be independent so your former employer can't control your benefits once you're approved.
