Appeal deadline questions after an unemployment denial after 10 years as a teaching assistant

I was told my separation was for misconduct, which is not what happened. I have been trying to stay organised about it. The letter lists a deadline and a hearing process, but it is hard to follow. 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.
