Pandemic Unemployment Assistance Tip:
If you previously entered a return to work
date of May 20 on your PUA claim
application, but will still be unemployed or
under-employed after that date, you can
continue filing your weekly
certification(s). This keeps your claim
active and provides weekly benefits, when
applicable, until you are back at work
full-time.
Helpful Filing Tip - If you
have returned to work, but at a reduced
schedule, please continue to file weekly as
you may be eligible for partial benefits.
Reporting your part-time hours and earnings
keeps your claim active and provides partial
unemployment benefits, where applicable.
