Where is the New York Unemployment office in Watertown?
Need to find the unemployment office location in Watertown. Called but no one answers. Been looking online but getting different addresses. Anyone know where it is and if its even open? Getting desperate here.

The Career Center is at 1000 Coffeen Street in Watertown. But heads up - they dont really handle unemployment stuff in person anymore since covid. Everything is online or over the phone now 🤷♀️

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone using claimyr.com. It costs $20 but they dial through the menu and wait on hold, then call you when they get someone. Here's a video explaining how it works: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

Listen up - here's the deal with NY unemployment offices in 2024: - Physical offices don't handle UI claims anymore - Everything is through the website or phone - Career Centers can help with job search but not claims - Best ways to get help: 1. Call early morning (7:30am) 2. Use claimyr.com if you're stuck 3. Message them on social media 4. Email your state representative The system changed after covid and never went back. Save yourself the trip to Watertown - nobody there can help with claims anymore.
