New York Unemployment Office Locations That Are Actually Open - Need In-Person Help
Getting desperate to find an open unemployment office. The downtown Brooklyn location on Schermerhorn is closed with just a sign on the door. Phone calls aren't helping with my situation. Anyone know which offices are actually open for in-person help these days?

Tried the same office last week, total waste of time. Most offices are still closed to walk-ins since covid. They say to call but its impossible to get through 🤡

I actually found a way to get through on the phone! Used this service called claimyr.com that calls and waits on hold, then connects you when a real person picks up. Costs $20 but worth every penny tbh. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

The Manhattan office on Varick Street is sometimes open but you need an appointment. Call your state assembly person, they can sometimes help get you one

Look, here's what you need to know about NY unemployment offices rn: - Most physical locations remain closed to walk-ins - Phone is your best bet but its overwhelmed - Use claimyr.com to get through on the phone (costs $ but works) - Contact your state assembly person for help - Try the virtual appointments on the website - Email them through the message portal AND your assembly person Dont waste time going to offices, they'll just turn you away. The system is backed up but there are ways through. Document everything and keep trying different channels.
