Claim Unemployment! Today April 19

[fred]

I opened new book on April 14th when  I completed it was told someone would call back within 72 hrs. It is now Sunday and no call.
does  anybody else have this problem? Also unable to go forward with a claim.

Buzz hope all is well !  Can you verify we are still getting paid 85% from Pioneer after this week ? this was my last week on my book and have to open a new one ,so if we're still on the pay roll I'll hold off till June, thank stay safe

I was told that unless we hear differently it's back to the 85%.

Did you answer something wrong? Where it asked if you earned more than $504 from self employment did you answer NO or N/A?

In any event, if it were me, I'd be on the phone at 7:58 tomorrow morning and keep redialing ... you'll likely get a chance to talk to somebody at 8.

buzz they streamlined the application & only ask about 8 basic questions & when I finished they said I successfully completed all the questions & was told not to call them they would call me that is why I am wondering if this is normal because of the high volume of people claiming at this time I know they have all my info because I have been claiming for 15 years

[LMAO]

 My wife filed last week all 10 pages to open new book same as I always filled out ,  unless they changed it this past week . And received her check in our account  UE & stimulus 

[fred]

in the last week they made the application much shorter & had google & apple work together to shorten it because so many people where leaving questions blank. believe they changed it Friday night April 10th

I also have not heard from them and I did it on the 14 th also. Today I checked my payment history and they still have my old claim info. I'm gonna try calling tomorrow

[fred]

numbers I am curious to know if you where able to get thru on the phone & get your claim straightened out

[Numbers]

Nope , I got thru on a different #, they took my social , pin and answered all the questions to certify for the week . When I answered the last question which was if I returned to work I said yes. Then I got a recording telling me my benefit year has ended & to file a new claim . Lol, that's what I did last week. I think their whole system is overloaded and they don't know what their doing . I think we have to give it more time and hopefully they call

[fred]

thanks for answering I had no luck even getting thru I think I'll wait a few days & hope for the call good luck.

[Numbers]

P. S. I went into my payment history , which shows my last year's claim , so that wasn't updated yet . But I sent them a message that I have not received my call back yet. Hopefully someone sees it lol.

[Numbers]

F.Y.I. Fred, I went back online this morning and decided to try again to file a new claim. It came up that I had an unfinished claim so I continued to finish it. Then when I submitted it said I will get the call back within 72 hrs. Hope fully this time it will be good. Good Luck

I filed for unemployment as I usually do no different than last summer. I did it very early Sunday morning. I did get the extra $600 on top of the normal $504 today. 

[Buzz]

Holy crap! Just read that the maximum unemployment in Jersey is now $713 a week!

I'd say we're a little behind ...

[fred]

fyi numbers got an email from dol to go on & complete my claim. was asked a bunch of questions about pandemic & none of the normal unemployment questions I was told again someone will call me with in 72 hours to complete claim
