TWC Texas: Trouble submitting new unemployment claim online with old claim history - How to upload paystubs?

I found a way to solve unemployment claim submission issues, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=876L2m9MGic

Listen up, folks. I've been dealing with EDD for years, and here's what I've learned: 1. Old claims can definitely cause issues. You might need to call and have them manually close it out. 2. For paystubs, log into your UI Online account and look for "Upload Income Documents" under the "More Services" tab. 3. If the system keeps freezing, try using a different browser or device. Sometimes it just doesn't play nice with certain setups. 4. ALWAYS save copies of everything you submit. The EDD has a talent for "losing" documents. 5. If all else fails, you gotta bite the bullet and call. Try early morning or late afternoon for shorter wait times. Remember, persistence is key. Don't let the system wear you down. You got this! 💪

Pro tip: Take screenshots of EVERYTHING. Every page you fill out, every confirmation, everything. It's saved my butt more than once when dealing with EDD shenanigans.

As for the issues with an old claim causing problems, it’s definitely possible. When systems aren’t updated correctly, they can show conflicts with data. Regarding Claimyr, it’s a legitimate service that many have found helpful. However, be aware it is a paid service and not everyone may be keen on spending extra money. If you decide to try it, weigh the cost against the potential time saved. For uploading paystubs, check in your account settings for a document upload option, often labeled under income verification or similar. If unsure, the FAQ section of the website or contacting customer service might yield answers, albeit with the dreaded wait times. In any case, perseverance and patience tend to pay off in these situations. Good luck!

Hey OP, quick question - when you try to submit your new claim, does it give you any specific error message? Might help narrow down the problem.

I swear, dealing with unemployment is like playing a game where the rules keep changing and no one tells you. It's RIDICULOUS!

Hey, 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. Check out this video: https://youtu.be/V-IMvH88P1U

I feel your pain, buddy. The unemployment website is like trying to navigate a maze blindfolded. 🤦‍♂️ For the paystubs, there should be an option to upload documents somewhere in your account settings. If you can't find it, you might have to call and ask for help.

Ugh, the online system is such a nightmare! I had the same issue last month. Have you tried clearing your browser cache and cookies? Sometimes that helps with weird glitches.

have u tried turning it off and on again? 🤣

yall ever wonder if the system is designed to be confusing on purpose? 🤔 like they're hoping people will just give up?

Anyone else feel like we need a support group for dealing with EDD stress? 😩 This stuff is seriously anxiety-inducing.

Hey, has anyone tried reaching out to their local representative's office for help? I've heard sometimes they can cut through the red tape faster.

Unpopular opinion: maybe we should all just learn to code and avoid this unemployment mess altogether 🤷‍♂️
