Appeal deadline questions after an unemployment denial - what worked for you?

My claim was denied after 14 weeks of waiting, and the letter says I have a short window to appeal. Thank you in advance. The letter lists a deadline and a hearing process, but it is hard to follow. Did you bring documents or only talk?

Legal aid offices and some workforce centres help with unemployment hearings at no cost. A call is worth it.

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