My disqualification period is coming to an end (Unemployment). (employee, report, employers)

Do you feel that you were guilty of simple misconduct? If not, keep claiming benefits and file an appeal. If you win, you'll get paid the 7 weeks, and if not, your benefits will start anyway.

Thank You Chyvan, I am gearing towards not going through with the appeal and just wait out the 7 weeks. Just wanted to make sure that I am not disqualified as a whole for benefits, and am only disqualified for the 7 weeks (punishment) period.

Good question
Lets lets say UE says your blocked from claiming 5-20 to 7-20 but says to call on 7-15, when can one expect a check?

[butters79]

Hey Wnyzfinest,

Since 7-15 is right around the corner, would love for you to keep us updated on your situation !

So I called today,,
English was a pain - so i tried Spanish (which I'm fluent) and had a call back in about 2 1/2 hours,

spoke with the woman, explained the situation she pretty much asked me.
1. are you looking for work? Yes I have been looking for full time work - I have a folder with all the acknowledgments from employers for the past 8 weeks.
2. are you in school? Yes I have a class from 6p-10p, however if I find work I am willing to drop the class - which is true a summer II PM class.

she said well your claim has been opened you can start claiming on jul 28 for bi weekly benefits, I asked her how soon can i get the money - she then responded if was really need money I can claim on 7-21 and the money will be in my account by tuesday , she knew my savings acct info.

I'm probably going to claim weekly if thats possible. I have Part Time work which is on Sun/Sat about 14 tops, so when I claim on sunday I'll just notate the weeks worth of work .

Remember Unemployment isn't designed to be a breeze, it's true colors are to benefit the employer and have you suffer for weeks until you can claim, little did they know I actually had a little piggy bank while its starting to get dry this unemp will really help, lol

Thanks Guys!

Thank You Wnyzfinest, and I am glad that UE came through without a hitch for you. Are you in NJ or other states I forgot to ask?

[NJFan07047]

This is for NJ.

[NJFan07047]

just tried to claim today for last week and got the following error:
"
Your certification cannot be processed.

Please refer to "Telephone Number to Claim Weekly Benefits", provided at:

Department of Labor and Workforce Development | List of Telephone Numbers to Claim Weekly Benefits


Please be sure that you use the exit button to close this application.

is this a glitch?
should i call tomorrow?
or simply wait until 7/30 (2-weeks)

I'm guessing you will need to make at least one biweekly claim before NJ will allow you to claim weekly.

[butters79]

Thought NJ is only bi-weekly?
