The most important thing is to file as soon as possible after you lose your job. Benefits don't start until you file, so every week you wait is money lost.
One last thing - make sure you keep track of all your job search activities from day one. Even if you're still in the waiting period, start documenting everything so you're ready when the job search requirements kick in.
Whatever you do, don't give up. I know it's frustrating but these disqualifications can often be overturned if you have good documentation and persistence. The appeal process works if you follow it correctly.
Just wanted to add that I used Claimyr recently when I couldn't get through to Washington ESD about my adjudication issue. Took about 2 hours but they got me connected to an agent who was able to explain exactly what was holding up my claim. Might be worth trying for your situation.
I keep hearing about this service. At this point I'm willing to try anything to get answers. Thanks for sharing your experience.
One more tip - if you're not sure about something, it's better to call and ask than to guess. Wrong information can delay your claim for weeks.

Bottom line - the formula is pretty straightforward but your actual wages might be different than you think. File your claim and see what the system calculates based on your actual employment records.

Just wanted to add - if you're still having trouble reaching Washington ESD for questions, I've had good luck with Claimyr too. Sometimes it's worth paying a small fee to avoid the phone hassle and get direct answers about your specific situation.

•Agreed. The time saved alone makes it worthwhile when you need specific information about your claim or benefit calculation.
