NYDOL claim filed, no response - what to do next?

Welcome to the club, buddy. NYDOL is a black hole where claims go to die. I filed mine 3 months ago and still crickets. 🦗🦗🦗

I feel ya, OP. The waiting game is brutal. Have you checked your online account? Sometimes they update stuff there without sending notifications.

Okay, let me break it down for you: 1. First, double-check your online account. NYDOL sometimes updates info there without sending notifications. 2. If nothing there, try calling. Yes, it's a nightmare, but persistence pays off. 3. Send a secure message through your online account. Document everything. 4. If you're really stuck, contact your local state representative. They can sometimes light a fire under NYDOL. 5. Make sure you're still certifying weekly, even if you haven't heard back about your initial claim. 6. Check your spam folder regularly. Sometimes important emails end up there. 7. Join Facebook groups for NY unemployment. They often have good intel on what's happening. Remember, the system is overloaded, but stay persistent. Good luck!

I found a way to actually 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

have u tried faxing ur docs? i no it sounds old school but sometimes it gets their attention faster than online stuff

Plot twist: NYDOL is actually run by a bunch of sloths. That's why everything moves so slow. 🦥

Serious question - has anyone had luck with the callback system? I requested one like 2 weeks ago and still nothing.
