TWC unemployment payments delayed for union member exempt from work search - No response for weeks, need advice

I found a way to solve unemployment payment delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JysYrsNZoyw

I found a way to actually 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/V-IMvH88P1U

Have you reached out to your union rep? They might have some pull or at least know who to contact. Worth a shot!

Hey OP, any update? Did you manage to get through to anyone or figure out what's going on with your payments?

Okay, listen up. I've been through this rodeo before and here's what you need to do: 1. Document EVERYTHING. Every call, every message, every piece of mail. Keep a log with dates and times. 2. Double-check your online account for any hidden messages or requests for information. 3. If you haven't already, file an appeal. Even if you don't know what went wrong, file it. This gets you in the system. 4. Contact your local state representative or senator's office. They often have liaisons who can cut through the red tape. 5. Keep certifying for benefits every week, even if you're not getting paid. This keeps your claim active. 6. If all else fails, consider legal aid. Many offer free consultations for unemployment issues. Remember, the system is designed to be frustrating. Don't give up! You're entitled to these benefits, so keep fighting. Good luck!

For anyone still struggling, I wanted to add some context and validate the use of Claimyr. It's a tool that has been getting some traction recently, especially considering the overwhelming demand on unemployment offices. While the fee might initially seem frustrating, for some people, it represents a valuable opportunity to save time and mental energy. However, it's essential to approach this service with a balanced perspective: read user reviews, assess your financial situation, and use the tool as just one part of a multi-faceted approach to resolving your unemployment issues. Keep utilizing all the other resources already mentioned, and don't hesitate to reach out to local advocacy groups that might also offer assistance.

I'm in the same boat, buddy. Been waiting for almost a month now. It's like they just forgot about us union folks. Have you tried calling them? I've been trying for days but can't get through.

have u tried faxing them? I know it sounds crazy but I got a response within 48 hrs after I faxed my info. Sometimes old school works lol

This whole situation is so messed up. We pay into this system our whole working lives and when we need it, it's broken af. Makes me wanna scream. Hang in there OP, we're all in this leaky boat together 😩

Anyone else feel like we're all just clowns in the unemployment circus? 🤡 Jump through hoops, balance on a tightrope of bureaucracy, and pray we don't fall into the pit of poverty. What a show!

Have you checked your online account? Sometimes they post messages there that don't come through to email. Also, make sure all your certifications are up to date.
