In Section 2, we introduce the new extension of unified family of Apostol-type polynomials and numbers that are defined in [9] . Also, we determine relations between some results given in [1] [3] [7] [10] [11] and our results. Moreover, we introduce some new identities for polynomials defined in [9] . In Section 3, we give some basic properties of the new unification of Apostol-type polynomials and numbers. Finally in Section 4, we introduce some relationships between the new unification of Apostol-type polynomials and other known polynomials.
