PEUC Unemployment Insurance 13-Week Extension Program

I know that some of you who have been unemployed since March or April have a small account balance and need to apply for PEUC this month or next.

I will share here
the most important thing to keep in mind.

Please make sure your account balance is zero before applying for PEUC.

UI ・ Many people on the local PUA message board do not know this and apply for PEUC before their balance is zero, causing the pending process to take longer than the usual 2 weeks.

Please be careful.

How to apply for PEUC:

sunset, I have a question about PEUC.

I came to Hawaii on an E2 visa and worked, but I have been on a leave of absence since the end of March and have been receiving UI unemployment insurance, but my balance will run out and I will be applying for PEUC next month.

In that case,
Are you able to work, available to work, and actively seeking work ( currently the requirement to actively seek work has currently the requirement to actively seek work has been temporarily waived during Covid-19 ) ?

Would PEUC's answer to this question be no, because you cannot work for another company on an E2 visa ?

I asked this question because I am concerned about my future income, although the company says they do not plan to lay me off in the future.
Thank you in advance.

Sachi,

The intent of this question is not to check which company you can work for, but to ask if you are in a position to work, so please answer YES.

As I told you earlier in this thread, the only people who need to answer "NO" are applicants who are ill or bedridden and unable to work but are receiving unemployment insurance.

I hear here and there that it is difficult to get unemployment insurance for E2 visa holders due to immigration issues involved, but I am glad you were able to get it.

Thank you for your quick reply.
My visa friends around me assumed that this question would be NO and I would no longer have any income.
This is an eye opener.

I asked the question in the last hope after seeing how kind and polite sunset was to me. I am glad I asked the question.

Also, I was even more interested to see the PUA application process because I knew people around me who were having trouble getting their applications approved.
I appreciate the advice from sunset very much.
I think there are many people who are in need of help in the future, so I would be very grateful if you could continue to help us by sending out information.
Thank you for your continued support.

Sachi,

Thank you. I read the local UI ・ PUA information exchange boards here and there every day so that I don't miss anything as much as possible, so if there are any important things to keep in mind, I will share them here.

I am glad to hear that you and your visa friends will be able to continue receiving your visas.

Dear Sunset

Thank you for always sharing useful information.
Now, I applied for PEUC and received my Confirmation number
after I applied and received my payment on Sept. 19th and my balance was zero,
I logged in to my page in the UI and looked at my CRAIM INQUIRY and found that
the weekly history that I had been able to see is gone.
Starting today, Sunday, Sept. 27th, I guess I can CRAIM last Saturday, Sept. 26th as my first PEUC
Do I still have to LOG IN and answer the weekly questions as before ?
or do I have to go back to my CRAIM INQUIRY and answer the weekly questions as before? Or will my unemployment insurance $ be automatically deposited into my bank account like the 300 since I got a Confirmation number ?
I would appreciate it if you could answer me.
Thank you very much.
