New York Unemployment: Zero effective days left but unemployed again - can I file new claim?

You can file a new claim right now! No need to wait till November. Since you worked for 4 months you should qualify for a new benefit year. Just make sure you have all your W2s and pay stubs ready when you file.

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone about this! Used claimyr.com - its this service that calls and waits on hold then connects you when someone picks up. Costs $20 but totally worth it. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

DONT FILE NEW CLAIM YET!!!! You gotta check if you made enough in your base period first or they might deny you and mess up everything 😫

Im literally in the exact same boat rn. Called using claimyr.com and the rep told me since I worked more than 3 months I can file new claim. Just make sure u report all earnings correctly

Here's the detailed breakdown of what you need to do: First, calculate your base period earnings - NY looks at the first 4 of last 5 completed quarters You need: - At least $2,900 in one quarter - Total earnings must be 1.5x your highest quarter - 10x your previous weekly benefit rate from work since your last claim If you meet these, file new claim immediately. Don't wait. Use claimyr.com to get through to a rep if you need clarification. Better to know now than wait till November. Keep all documentation ready: - Pay stubs - W2s - Employment dates - Separation letter Good luck! 💪

ny unemployment system is such a joke fr. took me 3 weeks to get this same question answered 🤡
