Sent hearing request 3 months ago, no response. What to do? (NYDOL)

Ugh, I feel your pain. I've been waiting for 2 months on mine. The system is so backed up its ridiculous. Have you tried checking your online account for any updates?

3 months is way too long. You should definitely follow up. I'd suggest calling them first thing in the morning when they open. Be prepared to wait on hold for a while tho.

I found a method to get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

Have you tried reaching out to your local representative? Sometimes they can help push things along.

Okay, so here's what you need to do: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your attempts to contact them, including dates and times. 2. Send a follow-up letter via certified mail. This creates a paper trail. 3. Call them daily if possible. Use the automated system to check your claim status, but also try to speak with a representative. 4. Check your spam folder regularly. Sometimes important emails end up there. 5. Reach out to your state representative or senator. They often have staff dedicated to helping constituents with these issues. 6. If all else fails, consider contacting a lawyer who specializes in unemployment cases. Remember, persistence is key. Don't give up!

man, the whole system is broken af. 3 months for a hearing? thats some bs right there 🤮

Have you checked if there's been any policy changes or updates that might affect your case? Sometimes they make changes and don't communicate them well.
