Appeal deadline questions after an unemployment denial - 14 weeks in

I got a denial letter last week saying I left my job voluntarily, but I was let go as a home health aide. I worked as a home health aide before this. My employer's version of events does not match mine, and I have emails that show it. If you have appealed before, what helped you prepare?

File the appeal before the deadline, even if you are unsure. You can gather documents afterwards. That is the one part I would not wait on.

Stay calm and stick to facts. Mine lasted about thirty minutes and felt more like a conversation than a trial.
