Appeal deadline questions after an unemployment denial, procurement assistant here

I was told my separation was for misconduct, which is not what happened. There are 5 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. The letter lists a deadline and a hearing process, but it is hard to follow. Did you bring documents or only talk?

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.
