[johnplacement]

Hello,

I live in NY, Queens county New York City Area.

I'm wonder on thing today i read the news about Olympia, Washington they loose tier 3 ( 9 weeks ). After August 11.

I'm wonder about my benefits, I'm in tier 2 still but I was searching what is the average of the unemployment rate in NY but I didn't find any information is really numb about it
can someone provide me the last 3 average months unemployment rate of NY please and how you apply this average unemployment rate all the state of NY or New York City or the capitol of NY is Albany.

I'm wonder how high or low is my risk to loose tier 3 in after October I need be prepare. I'm sorta nervous,

Thanks for everything!

I use this site for a quick fix on monthly UE rates. It's close enough.

http://www.deptofnumbers.com/unemployment/new-york/

NY's 3-month average unemployment rate is currently 7.7%. It needs to drop to 7% to lose Tier 3.

The current 7.7% is based on:

07.5% - June
07.6% - May
07.8% - Apr
22.5%/3 = 7.63% (BLS has rounded up to 7.7 - not sure why)

Emergency Unemployment Compensation Trigger Notice Report

In any event, in order for NY to trigger off Tier 3 in September, the July UE rate would need to be 5.4%, which clearly isn't happening. Even if August showed 7%, July 7%, June 7.5%, NY still remains triggered on, as its 3-mo average UE rate at 7.1% still meets the 7% trigger.

NY isn't losing Tier 3 anytime soon.

You're worrying about nothing, imo.
