    In the Matter of the Claim of John V. De Robbio, Appellant. Commissioner of Labor, Respondent.
    [779 NYS2d 277]
   Appeal from a decision of the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board, filed September 25, 2003, which, inter alia, ruled that claimant was ineligible to receive unemployment insurance benefits because he was not totally unemployed.

Substantial evidence supports the decision of the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board ruling that claimant was not totally unemployed. The record reveals that claimant was employed by a temporary employment agency. Based upon his representation to the employer that he worked on May 28, 2002 and May 29, 2002 for a client, the employer filled in claimant’s time sheet and sent him a paycheck for those days. Claimant nevertheless certified to the Department of Labor that he was totally unemployed during that week. Although claimant maintains that the information on the time sheet was incorrect and that he did not provide the employer with the information, this presented a credibility issue for the Board to resolve (see Matter of Sherman [Commissioner of Labor], 267 AD2d 568, 569 [1999]; Matter of Benedetto [Stuart R. Nadelson, P.C.—Sweeney], 239 AD2d 726, 727 [1997]). As the record supports the Board’s assessment of credibility of the hearing testimony, the decision, including the assessment of a recoverable overpayment, will not be disturbed.

Cardona, P.J., Peters, Spain, Mugglin and Rose, JJ., concur. Ordered that the decision is affirmed, without costs.
