Unemployment and hearing
Hello all. I was approved for unemployment and received three payments. After those three payments, I received a determination letter than I’m ineligible due to “quitting my job”. I did not quit my job, my place of employment SHUT DOWN, and I worked until the very last day, so workplace/employee abandonment would not apply. My place of employment actually even stated that they would not contest any unemployment claims by any of us employees.
I guess my question is, how long is my “request a hearing” going to be in limbo waiting for an answer? I submitted it on June 8th. Also, how could I have been paid the first few weeks & then payments just abruptly stop? Also, will I have to appear in court inevitably, or could they possibly overturn the decision (ineligible —> eligible) without any hearing? I submitted evidence showing my place of employment shut down and that I did not quit along with my request that I submitted on June 8th
I’m in NYC if it makes any difference
