Dear UI, PUA, and PEUC,
For those of you who are on the fence about applying for EB20,

I am copy-pasting below the unemployment insurance section of a major Forbes article dated December 27. Please keep in mind that this is only media speculation.

Unemployment Insurance: Impact

By signing the stimulus bill today rather than yesterday, millions of Americans will The stimulus bill provides for 11 weeks of enhanced federal unemployment benefits through March 14, Benefit weeks begin on a Sunday, so since Trump signed the stimulus bill today, states cannot start unemployment benefits until next Sunday, That means unemployment insurance will lapse for one week, leaving millions of unemployed Americans without essential financial support. However, despite the delay, unemployment benefits would still end on March 14, 2021, which means recipients would lose $ 300 in benefits and only receive 10 weeks of unemployment. That would limit the amount of total unemployment insurance to $ 3,000, rather than the anticipated $ 3,000. anticipated 3,300 for each individual recipient.


This article states that "By President Trump signing the bill today, rather than the day before, the states will have until Sunday, January 3 （ ） to extend the 11 weeks and 300 per week. cannot start the unemployment insurance program （ The Second Stimulus Package ） of 11-week extensions and $300 weekly benefits until Sunday January 3. This means you will lose one week of unemployment insurance. The $300 per week allowance could be for 10 weeks instead of 11 weeks," it says. As we have repeatedly stated, this is only media speculation.

The responsible team and I speculate that "the January 2 closing may be paid retroactively," but since Governor Ige and the UI office have not officially announced anything, our thoughts are just speculation.

If the Forbes article is correct, everyone at UI, PUA, PEUC, and EB20 could lose their $300 allowance for the January 2 closing. Also, those who still have PEUC account balances could lose their unemployment insurance for the January 2nd closing. Unless Governor Ige and the UI Office make a formal announcement on what they will do about these issues, there is currently no recourse to recover the January 2nd balance. As the UI office recently called for, be sure to file a Claim a Certification application every week.

Here is an explanation for those who are wondering about applying for EB20: EB20 is a permanent unemployment insurance program that lasts until the unemployment rate drops to 5%, which is separate from The Second Stimulus Package. Therefore, those who have already lost their PEUC account balance will lose the week ending January 2 unless they apply for EB20.

If you decide to apply for EB20, please consider applying for EB20 tomorrow, as the Benefit Year End deadline is December 29. Like the PEUC application, the EB20 application should not be accepted during the evening hours, so we strongly recommend that you open the UI system before evening in a location with good reception.

I will do my best to look for any new information updates, but if you find the latest official announcement from Gov. Ige and the UI office, it would be helpful if you could post it in this topic with the link. Thank you in advance.

Those of you who share information about advice from the call center, the call center may give wrong advice without information yet shared from the Director and Examiner, so if you get that impression, please ask the Examiner to "also Could you please reconfirm ？". Please do so.

Dear Sunset

Hello.

I have another question.

This is for those who are not sure about applying for EB20, which is a permanent unemployment insurance program that lasts until the unemployment rate drops to 5%, which is separate from The Second Stimulus Package. Therefore, those who have already lost their PEUC account balance will lose the week ending January 2 unless they apply for EB20.

You mention that EB is not 13 weeks?

If we wait for the 11 week extension for PEUC or APPLY for EB
I don't think there is that much difference in the length of time we can finally get
what do you think?

https://labor.hawaii.gov/blog/news/6525/
of
Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation (FPUC)

Provides up to 11 weeks of an additional $ 300 weekly benefit to eligible claimants.

A claimant must be eligible for regular UI, PUA,
Once implemented, FPUC is available between Dec. 27, 2020, and week ending March 13, 2021.
You are saying that $300 will be provided by EB, right?

Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation (PEUC)

Increases the number of weeks of benefits an individual may claim through the PEUC program from 13 to 15.

Once implemented, PEUC is available between Dec. 27, 2020 and the week ending March 13, 2021 and allows individuals to claim through the PEUC program from 13 to 24. Once implemented PEUC is available between Dec. 27, 2020 and the week ending March 13, 2021 and allows individuals receiving benefits as of March 13 to continue through April 10, 2021, as long as the individual has not reached the maximum number of
I still don't see the point of having a zero balance.

Also, as was the case with PEUC, EB apply is
until 5pm or 5:30pm, I believe.

Please do.

I will answer your question as soon as possible. I know it is hard to read, but please read all of this topic once.

Isn't EB 13 weeks?
↑
Please read through #350.

I don't think there is that much difference in the final length of time you can get if you wait for the 11 week extension for PEUC or APPLY for EB?
↑
Please look over #570.

You are saying that the $300 will also benefit EB, correct?
↑
Please look over the PDF file in #598.

It still doesn't seem to make sense if you have a zero balance.
↑
In the absence of a formal announcement of specific guidance from the UI office, everyone should make their own decision. The team in charge and I are of the opinion that "it is up to you to decide".

Mr. SUNSET

Sorry for the delay in thanking you. Thank you for your kind response.

"Please read #448 in this topic while looking at where your account balance is displayed in your UI system." You responded, "Where the account balance is shown" means that if you click on
My Account -> Claim Inquiry
from the screen after logging in, you will see
Summary of the last 4
The maximum benefits on your claim have been exhausted. 12/28/2020 you have been paid $ ●●*.
* This does not include any special payments.
sunset, you say, "Your benefit year ends ●●/20●●●" is shown in the place where the account balance is written. I am wondering if you can tell me where I can click to see it.

I read in #448 that there are two account balances, "zero" and "exhausted", but I don't understand what the difference is or what the words mean. What is the difference? If these two are different, will my work be different? I see ？

I see
My Account -> Claim Inquiry
now shows the following I now see My Account -> Claim Inquiry
The maximum benefits on your claim have been exhausted. as of 12/28/2020 you have been paid $ ●●*.
I think yesterday the date part was 12/27/2020, but since we are in a special situation, will the date be updated in a timely manner?

In #610, you said "This is for those who are wondering about applying for EB20: EB20 is a permanent unemployment insurance program that lasts until the unemployment rate drops to 5%, so it is separate from The Second Stimulus Package that is being used. Therefore, those who have already lost their PEUC account balance will lose the week ending January 2 unless they apply for EB20." but does this mean that in my case, whether or not to apply for EB will not change if I wait for Governor Ige's announcement tomorrow? Or should I do it today?

Mr. Pool,

"The maximum benefits on your claim have been exhausted. as of 12/28/2020 you have been paid $ ●●*. * This does not include any special payments."
↑
I see, the account balance is now in Exhausted status, so the display has changed. Now, please open the page that says [Welcome （ Pool's name ） ! ], and right above the [Week Ending Date] and [Current Status], you will see [Claim: 10/28/2020 to 12/29/2020] as an example for your reference. The one that is [12/29/2020] is the Benefit Year End Due Date at PEUC. If the date is next year, it is the original Benefit Year End when you first applied for unemployment insurance.

"I read #448 and it seems that there are two account balances, "zero" and "exhausted", but I don't understand what the difference is or what the term means. What is the difference? If these two are different, will my work be different? My display is "exhausted" so does that mean it is not "zero" ？"
↑
Please read #48 and #49 of this Topic for reference. Zero" is when the account balance is exactly and cleanly exhausted. Exhausted" is when you have exhausted your account balance below your WBA. When you see either of these indications, it is time to apply for EB20.

"In my case, I just looked at My Account -> Claim Inquiry and it shows the following The maximum benefits on your claim have been exhausted. 12/28/2020 you have been paid $ ●●*. I think yesterday the date part was 12/27/2020, but I wonder if the date will be updated in a timely manner since we are in a special situation."
↑
The 12/28/2020 part changes daily with today's date.

"In my case, does that mean that I can wait for Governor Ige's announcement tomorrow to change whether or not to apply for EB? Or should I do it today?"
↑
Governor Ige made a formal announcement today, but no guidance for applicants who have exhausted their PEUC account balance and are unsure about applying for EB20. If there is no specific guidance announcement from the UI office by tomorrow morning, please consider applying for EB20. Personally, I suspect that if you apply after the Benefit Year End deadline has expired, there is a possibility that your unemployment insurance may be systematically expired once and you may have to go through more trouble to get the call center to correct it, but this is just speculation.

I was suddenly wondering about Pool's previous questions, how did you switch from UI to PEUC last time? Did you have someone else do it for you? Please try to catch up by reading all of this topic again, as PEUC and EB20 are almost the same pattern.
