I've certified for unemployment 13 times. And never received a penny. Now I'm told since I got sick and can't work right now, I am unavailable for any unemployment benefits. WHY??? #unemploy

Hi Ricky. The system is so broken and unreliable right now. I think the best thing you can do for your kids and yourself is begin to search for work and begin applying ASAP. It's just too hard to depend on unemployment right now. You can still collect when things are all set, but it's important to have a backup plan. Let me know how I can help!

I don't know if this can help anyone, but today, in about 1 hour, New Jersey 101.5 FM radio will present a digital-exclusive town hall at 7 p.m. Thursday, March 11, featuring the state's top labor official. During program, host Eric Scott will talk with NJ Labor Commissioner Robert Asaro-Angelo about what people can do to get the money/unemployment benefits they need.

#advice #benefits #unemploy #exhausted #georgia

What am I doing wrong I can't seem to get any benefits like at the 1200 back in June. It keeps telling me my social security number is incorrect, which is impossible. Can't log on my taxes got screwed up is what think is the problem. My state taxes got filed in Florida and then got a mended and filed in Georgia which is correct. I'm self-employed I don't qualify for unemployment cuz I've never paid anything end to Georgia so I don't receive state unemployment benefits I try to get onto the Pua the 600 a week and I get know where I've spent countless hours on the telephone no return phone calls now I'm waiting the 600 from December 28th I think and I haven't got that yes can someone please help me not to mention the 300 a week anything would help thank God I'm living with my parents unfortunately I don't have a actual rent payment due.

Hi @Bates Vayson , your claim will automatically go from an automatic to a manual filing process if any errors or outstanding information is discovered on your claim. This may cause long delays, especially within this pandemic environment where state agencies continue to be overwhelmed with new claims and appeals. Your best bet is to make contact with an unemployment agency representative and ask for you claim to be expedited. Requesting a Manager or Supervisor during the call is the best way to speak to someone qualified to handle your concern. In the meantime, however, continue to file your weekly claims.
