Q: what can i do if i am still unable to reach a representative to claim pandemic unemployment backpay that is owed to me?
both i and my mom made the same mistake: when certifying for pandemic unemployment assistance, we pressed a wrong button, made a wrong choice, and for that we were denied most of the money. i have tried countless times to call them and correct our claims, but throughout these few years i have never been able to reach a representative. should i still keep calling, or should i just consider it too bad? isn't the state supposed to make it possible to claim my money?
what else can i do to claim it, i am sure that i am far from the only one who hasn't been able to claim their pandemic assistance. and has the time already expired?
A: An employment law attorney would probably have the most insight into this, but your question remains open for a week. The question may have gone unnoticed under the "Small Claims" heading. Some questions here do remain unanswered, but you could try reposting under "Employment Law." Good luck
