I live in MASS. My hours at my job were first reduced in NOV 08, then I was fired Feb 09.
I started collecting partial benefits in NOV. I have already exausted my first 26 weeks of UI. I am 10 weeks into my first-extension and have 10 weeks left of this one.
I am confused if I qualify for the third one because on the website (listed below) it kind of looks like I have to have run out of my benefits before Dec. 26, 09.
Does anyone know if that's for people who are still on their regular UI? Does anyone have any idea if I should be alright and continue into the EB? That is an add'tl 13 wks. I was at the UI office and the lady told me I had ten more weeks plus an addtional 13 but I don't know if she's wrong.
im sick of being jobless but the website is listed below. So just to summarize:
I...
Exsausted my regular benefits 10 weeks ago.
I'm 10 wks into EUC-08
I have ten wks left of EUC 08
Main Question: Because my EUC 08 benefits run out after December 26 (they'd run out sometime in Jan)., do i qualify for EB (Federal/State bens?)
Thankyou!
Here's the wbst. tnx
