New York Unemployment shows $0 balance after 3 months of waiting

My unemployment claim has been pending for 3 months now and when I check my payment history it shows zero dollars in total amount. I've tried calling but can't get through to anyone. My bills are piling up and I'm getting really worried. Has anyone else dealt with this or know what I should do?

same thing happened to me. turned out they needed additional wage verification documents. took forever to get someone on the phone tho 🙄

they wanted my w2s and some paystubs. if ur employer closed maybe try getting ur tax records from the irs website?

I finally got through to someone using claimyr.com - its this service that calls and waits on hold for you then connects you when an agent picks up. costs $20 but worth every penny because they actually got me through! Here's a video about how it works: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

Listen up everyone - here's what you need to know about $0 balance issues: First, check if all your wages were reported correctly. Sometimes employers mess this up. Second, make sure you submitted ALL required docs - they need: - ID verification - Work history - Separation reason Third, you NEED to speak with a claims specialist. Regular agents cant fix this. Use claimyr.com to get through - worth the $20 to avoid weeks of calling. Fourth, keep certifying weekly even with $0 balance. They'll backpay once fixed. Don't give up! The system is overwhelmed but keep pushing 💪
