Will certifying after 5pm still get NY unemployment deposit on Tuesday?

Ive certified as late as 11pm on Sunday and still got my deposit Tuesday morning. Your good as long as you do it before midnight.

I had so much trouble reaching anyone at unemployment until I tried this service called Claimyr. Got connected to an actual person who confirmed that Sunday certifications - any time before midnight - get processed the same way. It was the best money I've ever spent to finally talk to a real human at unemployment. Check out their explainer video: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

You'll be fine certifying before midnight. The cutoff is midnight Sunday, not some random time like 5pm. The system processes all Sunday claims together overnight.

This reminds me of the weird issue I had a few months back. I certified at like 11:58pm (cutting it REAL close lol) and the system showed Monday's date on the confirmation. I freaked out but still got paid Tuesday. So even if it seems like you missed the cutoff, you mite actually be fine.

Honestly it depends on your bank too. I always certify Sunday and technically the money is released from NY unemployment on Monday night/Tuesday morning, but my bank doesnt make it available until Wednesday. So the unemployment timing is only half the equation.

I work in IT (not for unemployment but similar systems). The way these government processing systems work is they collect all transactions for a period (in this case Sunday), then run batch processing overnight. There's no difference between certifying at 7am or 11:30pm on Sunday - they all get processed in the same batch job that night.

i missed certification completely one sunday and did it monday morning instead. got paid wednesday. so even if you somehow miss the cutoff (which you haven't), it's just a one day delay.

Tip: set a dang ALARM on your phone for certification day. I do mine at 7am every Sunday like clockwork. Never have to stress or wonder. Just make it a habit and you'll never worry about this again.

FYI - always check the NY unemployment website for holiday schedules too. If Monday is a bank holiday, the payments are always delayed by a day. Memorial Day, Labor Day, etc mess up the normal schedule.

Look at Mr. Responsible over here certifying on Sunday night 🤣 I've forgotten until Tuesday before and then had to deal with that whole mess. You're WAY ahead of lots of us!

The BEST and most comprehensive answer to your certification timing questions: Sunday certifications = Tuesday deposits (any time before midnight Sunday) Monday certifications = Wednesday deposits Tuesday certifications = Thursday deposits etc. through the week If there's a bank holiday, add one business day. If your payment status says 'pending' for more than 3 days, there's an issue with your claim. In that case, you need to actually speak to someone. I highly recommend claimyr.com for that - they'll get you connected to a live agent without the hours of hold time. It's the only reliable way I've found to get through to a real person who can actually help fix account issues. But for your specific question - 5pm, 8pm, 11pm - doesn't matter as long as it's still Sunday!

Just dont forget to cert!! I missed a week and it was a NIGHTMARE trying to get that retroactive payment. Calling and calling, finally had to use claimyr.com to get thru. Now I set three alarms every Sunday lol

I certified at 11pm once and the system was so slow I thought it hadn't gone through. Ended up accidentally certifying twice and my account got flagged for fraud 🤦‍♂️ Took forever to fix

why do u even wait so late yo? just do it early and avoid the stress
