To those of you who plan to cancel EB20,

I have heard many people say that the call center is completely disconnected. Moreover, even though the UI director announced in a video interview on January 15 that people who want to cancel EB20 should call the call center, the call center does not seem to accept cancellations.

Hence, I suggest you leave evidence by emailing the EB20 cancellation intent. I feel that we should give up on the call center and just wait for the introduction of the PEUC 11-week extension.

Be sure to include your name, the last four digits of your social security number, the address, phone number, and e-mail address you used to register your account in the e-mail. Also, please include the conformation number that was emailed to you when you applied for EB20.

Unempoyment Quality Control]

A randomly selected number of you will receive an email from the UI office titled "Quality Control Review Claimants Questionnaire".

The content of the email will read.
"You've been selected for a Quality Control review. Please see attached the documents for completion by ●/●/2021. As reported in the recent media news, the federal government's Department of Labor is going to investigate the UI office in Hawaii to check if the UI office employees are making the correct arrangements.

In Japanese, this is similar to an "audit" conducted by an accountant on a company. In other words, we are helping the federal government's Department of Labor audit the State of Hawaii's UI office.

So it is not a SCAM email, please submit the items specified in the email by the deadline （ Submissions include passport, driver license, social security card, etc ）. Please check your e-mail box from time to time just in case it comes to your spam folder.

Federal Department of Labor, Hawaii UI ・ PUA office acts illegally They are also concerned that they are wasting Unemployment Insurance Funds by failing to identify applicants, so perhaps a review will be initiated. The recent PUA office's initiation of rules for sole proprietors to submit proof of income may be part of this. That's all for now, but after reading the painful and perplexing feelings of those of you who are in dire straits such as too long PENDING, etc., I have always felt that the UI office in the state of Hawaii has become so dysfunctional that slow Hawaiian time is no longer applicable. I have always felt that Quality Control is a really good thing because it will give the UI office a chance to improve.

To those of you who
have been approved for a 13-week PEUC extension after waiting more than a month for a PENDING

Overpayment payment
To those of you who have been approved for a 13-week PEUC extension

[Please]

Even now Many of you are still waiting for the approval of your PEUC 13-week extension. Even though the PEUC 11-week extension for those who have exhausted their PEUC account balance will start soon, they are still unable to apply for the extension.

We believe that you can best understand the pain and stress of the long wait for approval. Please move it to the "PEUC not yet approved" topic and share the information in a timeline style. ？ Thank you very much.

（ Example ）
●May●:Apply for 13 weeks extension of PEUC
●May●:Call UI office for reminder
●May●:Overpayment payment received and paid
●May●:Approved
●May●Day:Deposit

*I would appreciate it if you could advise them how many times you contacted the UI office to urge them and how you said.

*We would appreciate it if you could advise them which method of payment contact you received, mail, email or phone.

How UI office contacted overpayment]

Recent （ Within 3 months back from today ） I went through again the examples of how UI office contacted applicants, not only for PEUC 13 weeks extension but also for PEUC 11 weeks extension and EB20. This is relevant not only for the PEUC 13 week extension but also for the PEUC 11 week extension and EB20, so please refer to this for future reference.

● Calls and asks how you want to pay
↑
Various suggestions such as "deduct from your account balance ？", "deduct from future weekly filing payments ？", "pay by check ？" It seems that you will be offered a variety of suggestions. If you agree to deduct the amount from your weekly filing, the amount will be displayed in the Details section under the title "Overpayment Offset Deduction".

●Payment notification letter will be sent by mail
↑
Someone tried to send a check unilaterally without waiting for the letter, but it was not accepted and the issue could not be resolved, so please wait until you receive the letter.

●A phone call comes and instructs you to apply for Reactivate a Claim or File a Claim Certification
↑
The adjuster adjusts the applicant's account in the system. Please do not try to apply until you receive a phone call.

*We re-share the previous announcement from the UI director regarding overpayment.

If the overpayment is due to intentional false filing, the PEUC application will be reviewed for approval. In this case, please contact the call center and they will tell you that the application is being reviewed. If it is determined that you have filed a false application, your UI account will be banned for two years. If you are misled by the false filing, please contact the Legal Aid organization in Hawaii.

That's all I have to say, but again, in looking for examples, there are absolutely no cases where the overpayment process was completed quickly by the applicant contacting them, and they are just told to wait for the adjuster to contact them. The call center staff does not have the authority to process overpayments, and the adjuster seems to be in charge.

[Regarding the $300 FPUC per week]

Those with UI account balances, those with PEUC 13-week extended account balances, and those with EB20 accounts have begun receiving their payments as soon as their weekly filing from the January 2 close shows "processed".

However, only a small percentage of those who fall into the above categories are still eligible, so it appears that the UI office has not started disbursing payments to all eligible individuals at once, but is working on a rolling basis.

Please do not rush and see how things go this week and next week.
