NYDOL Overpayment: When Will Regular Benefits Resume?

Ugh, been there done that. It's such a headache dealing with overpayments. Have you tried calling them? That's usually the best way to get a straight answer.

I found a method to get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

Here's what you need to know about overpayments with NYDOL: 1. First, don't panic. It happens more often than you'd think. 2. You'll need to repay the overpaid amount. They usually set up a payment plan. 3. Your regular benefits might be reduced until the overpayment is cleared. 4. If it wasn't your fault (like a NYDOL error), you can request a waiver. 5. Document EVERYTHING. Keep all notices and records of communication. 6. Be proactive - reach out to them ASAP to show you're trying to resolve it. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Have you checked your online account? Sometimes they post updates there before sending out notices.

I had this happen last year. It took about 6 weeks for my regular benefits to start up again after I agreed to the repayment plan. Hang in there!

Anyone else feel like were playing unemployment roulette? One week youre good, the next BAM overpayment notice 🎰

Make sure to appeal if you think the overpayment was a mistake! You have 30 days from the date on the notice.

Ive been waiting 3 months for them to process my appeal on an overpayment. The system is broken af
