Submission of Employee Claim (Form C-3) at Pre-Hearing Conference
The eCase document upload feature allows injured workers, payers, and attorneys to upload documents directly to the case folder to use as evidence at scheduled hearings.
The Employee Claim (Form C-3) is now eligible for eCase document upload for claimants and claimant attorneys. In cases with a notice of controversy, if a represented claimant has not filed a Form C-3 with the Board prior to the Pre-Hearing Conference, the claimant and their representative are required to complete a Form C-3 and file it with the Board by eCase document upload at the Pre-Hearing Conference (see 12 NYCRR 300.33[f][6] and 300.38[g][6]).
Upload protocol reminder
The document upload feature is not a means to submit claim documents for processing. Once a hearing has concluded, documents can only be filed with the Board via email (wcbclaimsfiling@wcb.ny.gov) or regular mail (P.O. Box 5205, Binghamton, NY 13902-5205). Following this protocol will ensure that documents are promptly addressed by a judge at a hearing or by the Claims unit thereafter.
