Need to reschedule New York Unemployment adjudicator interview due to family emergency

They should be able to accommodate you for this. Call them asap and explain the situation. Make sure to have your flight info ready. This is considered a legitimate reason for rescheduling.

Hey i was in a similar situation last month. I used claimyr.com to get through to someone. It costs $20 but they dial and wait on hold then connect you when someone picks up. Really helped me out. Heres a video about how it works: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

Send an email RIGHT NOW to your local state representative. They can help push this through faster. Worked for me when I had an emergency situation.

Sorry about your family member ❤️ Make sure to document everything. Take screenshots of your attempts to contact them, save your flight info, and write down times/dates of all your calls.

Quick heads up - if u miss the interview they usually give u 7 days to provide good cause for missing it. So worst case scenario, you'll have time to explain after the fact
