I hear a lot of rumors but want to go to the source

I’m gonna file in June. I’m tryna get the base rate plus the extra 600 a week

But they keep telling me the website is down bc too many people applying

Any luck?

My clients tell me there is lots of wait time, and backed up calls.


Their actually hiring hundreds of new workers to keep up with the applications.

No luck for me. Phones are clogged. Online chat is clogged. Still waiting from March. In Michigan btw.

Document everything. From the time you were seperated from your employer. To the times you tried to call and couldn't get through. The times you tried to file and the website was down. They are supposed to give you back pay from the date you stopped working....Good luck, my prayers go out to those who need it, but cant get it.

* I was fortunate in NC. I got through at the dawn of the storm.

Is there any particular method you'd use to document it? And who would you bring that information to if need be?

I'm applying June 16th

Try too screenshot all times the site is down when you go online. Screenshot the lengths of time, you are placed on hold. Write down the times you call.

I used to get website down messages all the time. But id refresh the screen a few times and then it would load. Again i am in NC and this is before the real influx began... if ever there is a dispute or you are denied they will tell you who to submit your records to.


Make sureto get something from your job saing your lay off is covid related or you wont get the 6 stacks. By law they have to provide it.

If your job is laying you off or furloughing you die to COVID19, they’re technically supposed to file for you. When you Filemón your end, it should make things go smoother. Try to get in on the site late at night (around 3-4 in the morning) I had luck then when the website was down other times. You will get back pay for every week since you were fired.
