Denied unemployment, how do I appeal?

My claim was denied after 9 weeks of waiting, and the letter says I have a short window to appeal. It has been a long 9 weeks. My employer's version of events does not match mine, and I have emails that show it. 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.

I printed my emails in order and wrote a one-page timeline. The hearing officer kept going back to it.
