NYDOL Overpayment: When will payments resume after deductions?

I went through something similar last year. It took about 3 weeks after they started deducting the overpayment for my regular benefits to kick back in. Make sure you keep certifying every week tho!

ugh, i'm in the same boat. been waiting for 2 months now and still nothing. NYDOL is a joke 🤡

Here's what I know about overpayments and resuming benefits: • The time it takes to resume payments varies depending on your specific case and the amount of overpayment. • Generally, it can take anywhere from 2-6 weeks after the overpayment is fully recouped. • Continue certifying for benefits every week, even if you're not receiving payments. • Check your online account regularly for updates or notices. • If it's been more than 6 weeks since your overpayment was settled, definitely contact NYDOL for clarification. • Sometimes, they may require additional information or verification before restarting benefits. • Keep all documentation related to your claim and overpayment in case you need to dispute anything. Hope this helps! Remember, everyone's situation is a bit different, so your mileage may vary.

Has anyone else noticed that the NYDOL website is always down when you need it most? 🤔 Trying to check my claim status is like playing the lottery lol

Pro tip: I found a way to actually get someone on the phone at NYDOL. 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

anyone else feel like theyre just throwing darts in the dark with this stuff? like how are we supposed to know whats going on if they dont tell us anything smh

Hey OP, have you checked if you're eligible for any other assistance programs while you're waiting for your unemployment to kick back in? Might be worth looking into food banks or rental assistance if you're strapped for cash.
