New York Unemployment Mandatory Phone Calls - How Often Do They Happen?

I had to do like 4 of them total. They space them out weird tho, sometimes its 3 weeks sometimes its 6 weeks. Super annoying but u gotta do it 🤷‍♂️

Hey if ur having trouble getting through to them for the mandatory call, I found this service called claimyr.com that calls and waits on hold for you. Costs $20 but worth it imo. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

Its random honestly. I had 2 calls my first month then didnt get another for like 2 months. System makes zero sense 🤡

Listen up everyone - here's the ACTUAL deal with these calls based on my experience and what I've learned from others: The mandatory calls aren't strictly monthly. They typically happen 4-6 times during your claim period, but the timing varies. They're checking if you're actively job searching and available for work. Tips for handling them: - Keep detailed records of your job search efforts - Answer all calls from NY numbers during business hours - If you miss a call, use claimyr.com to get through quickly - Have your work search records ready before the call Don't stress too much about it - just stay organized and you'll be fine!
