New York Unemployment: What does adjudication status mean for my claim?

Called unemployment today and they said my claim is in adjudication status. Never heard of this before. Does anyone know what this means for my benefits? The agent couldnt explain it well and hung up before I could ask more questions.

Adjudication means they need to investigate something on your claim. Could be wages, job separation, or availability issues. Usually takes 2-3 weeks but with the backlog it could be months 😩

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone who can help. Used this site claimyr.com - it costs $20 but they dial and wait on hold, then connect you when someone picks up. Here's a video explaining it: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

bruh adjudication is the worst. its when they put ur claim on pause to look into something. keep filing ur weekly claims tho!

Listen up because this is important. Adjudication is a review process that happens when there's an issue with your claim that needs investigation. Could be several reasons: - Employer disputed your claim - Income verification needed - Questions about your availability for work - Job separation issues What you need to do: 1. Keep filing weekly claims 2. Check your mail/email daily 3. Respond to ANY requests immediately 4. Try getting through to an agent for updates (use claimyr.com if you're struggling) During adjudication you won't get paid but if approved you'll get backpay for all weeks claimed. Document everything and stay on top of it! 💯
