Can you file New York Unemployment weekly claim on Saturday instead of Sunday?

Need to know if I can certify my unemployment claim on Saturday instead of Sunday. Will be away from my phone and computer on Sunday, but don't want to mess up my benefits.

You can only certify starting Sunday at 7:00 AM through Saturday at midnight. Sunday is actually the first day of the new claim week. If you wait till Saturday you're cutting it really close.

You could always get someone to do it for you but that's technically not allowed and could get u in trouble

Had trouble reaching them about this same issue. Used claimyr.com to get through to an agent who explained everything. Yeah it costs $20 but saved me hours of stress. Here's a video about how it works: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

Look Im gonna tell you exactly how this works cause I been in the system for a minute. You HAVE to certify between Sunday 7AM and Saturday midnight. No exceptions. If you miss it, you gotta call them and explain why, and trust me you DO NOT want that headache. They might make you wait weeks to get paid. Sunday morning is your best bet - do it early before the system gets overwhelmed. Don't try any tricks or loopholes cause they will catch you. If you really can't do it yourself on Sunday, your only options are either finding internet access wherever you're gonna be, or calling them through claimyr.com to explain your situation before it happens. Better to handle it upfront than fix it after.
