New York Unemployment Website Login Not Working - Password Issues
The unemployment website keeps saying my password is wrong. I've tried resetting it multiple times but still can't get in. Been trying since yesterday morning and getting really frustrated. Anyone else having this problem or know how to fix it?

I found a way to actually talk to someone about this! Used claimyr.com to get through to an agent. Costs $20 but totally worth it cause they fixed my account in 5 mins. Check out this video about it: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

Here's what worked for me: wait 24 hours after your last attempt, use incognito mode, clear ALL browsing data, then try again. If that doesn't work, you'll need to call them directly. Best time to call is right when they open at 8am. Or use claimyr.com if you don't wanna wait on hold forever.

Pro tip: make sure ur not copying and pasting the password. type it manually. sometimes hidden spaces get copied too

Had the exact same issue last week! What finally worked for me was using a different device entirely - tried my phone instead of laptop and it went through immediately. Also make sure you're using the correct URL (labor.ny.gov/signin) because there are some fake lookalike sites that will mess with your login attempts. If all else fails, definitely try that claimyr service people are mentioning - heard good things about it from others in this group.

•Thanks for the tip about using a different device! I've been trying on my laptop this whole time. Will definitely try my phone next. Also good point about the URL - I'll double check I'm on the right site. This whole situation is so stressful when you need to certify for benefits 😅
