Update us when you hear back from Washington ESD! This kind of case is really interesting from a legal standpoint. Workplace safety retaliation cases often favor the employee, especially with documentation like you have.
One more plug for that Claimyr service if anyone needs to actually talk to Washington ESD about their case. I used it again last week for a different issue and got through immediately. Sometimes you just need to speak to a human, and this makes that possible without the usual hassle.
Last piece of advice - screenshot or save any text messages, emails, or other communications you have related to the problems at your old job. Digital evidence can disappear and you want to preserve everything while you still have access to it.
Thanks everyone for all the advice! I'm feeling much more hopeful about this now. Going to file my claim this weekend and start gathering documentation. Will update you all on how it goes.
Wishing you the best! And remember that Claimyr option if you need to actually talk to someone at Washington ESD.
One thing that helped me was keeping a log of when I filed, what status changes I saw, and any communications from Washington ESD. Made it easier to track progress and have specific questions ready when I finally got through to someone.
For what it's worth, I used Claimyr when I was in a similar situation and the agent was able to tell me exactly what stage my claim was in and what to expect next. Worth the peace of mind when you're dealing with this kind of uncertainty.

One last tip for anyone reading this - if you're still confused about your specific tax situation with unemployment benefits, the IRS has a pretty good FAQ section on their website about unemployment compensation and taxes. It's worth checking out if you need more detailed information.
