When I call, they just keep saying "wan wan" and hang up, and I can't get through.
Has anyone been able to connect and talk to someone ？?

As for when to say "one",
after listening to the whole announcement, it will go silent once.
At that timing, say "one" ！ once to connect.
I wish you a safe connection ！ ！

I also have not been approved for PEUC13 week since December
OVER due to system error in UI I have e-mailed and emailed the Governor, but no progress, so I waited until today.
However, the benefit year end is coming up next month, so I called today.

The call center person sounded very tired.
I was so angry that I had to wait for 3 months because of a system error. I had heard that there were many people in more trouble than me, so I had been waiting for 3 months to hear from you,
I started the conversation in a modest way.
They listen very kindly.

I asked for the other person's name at the end, in case it might be useful later on if something happened.

I hope Oneone can get this resolved soon.

I too have been waiting since November for overpayment reasons.
I still have not received a letter.
I know you had the same overpayment reason as me,
what did they say when you called ？
did they just tell you to wait for the letter ？

Sorry to continue, but as sunset stated in 825 in the 13 week extension program topic,
it said that they could not respond to overpayments by phone and that we would just have to wait for the letter, so I was just waiting and waiting, but if you have made any progress by calling Hanamaru, could you let me know? I was just waiting for the letter, but if you could let me know if there was any progress ？ then I would call again.............................

Cookie,

Just to be clear. As I wrote in #825, don't just wait for the letter, you may get a phone call as well. Try taking all phone numbers that you don't remember. I think it is always a good idea to set up an answering machine as well. If there is no response, you will be put off.

Sunset, it has been a while. Thank you for writing to us. I am also waiting for your call. I always take the ones with the Hawaii area code, even on the islands. I also take the ones with the mainland area code because I am also anxious. Both are commercial. Most of what I see on this topic is still above the clouds for me, such as pending and PEUC11, so I'm thinking of starting a topic in the near future so that those of us who are waiting on overpayments can exchange ideas. Thank you very much.

I am a man in his 20s working in Hawaii
I have dreams but I am not very good at what I do and have a weak mentality
On top of that, I have not been able to make much money in Corona ・ ・ ・
I also tried investing in stocks but it failed.
With the little money I have left, I'm thinking of buying a car and doing Uber or home delivery, but I'm not sure if I can make money.

Uber and delivery is a tough job that requires speed and high review ratings. If you're not to the point, it's not a good idea... If you have a work visa and good English, find a job that suits you.

Hi, I too had a mental breakdown, had a lot going on in Corona, and was blocked up for a while.
Finally, last month, I started to feel positive.
I saw a channel on youtube where Japanese people living in Hawaii are doing their best,
I decided to do my best and became more positive.
You can also get tips on business and work.
I am sure that everyone is doing their best and it motivates me ！

I have applied for unemployment insurance but have been PENDING for 5 months now. When I called, I was only told to wait to hear from the higher ups, but I still have not heard from them.
My previous job that stopped in Corona is scheduled to reopen, but I am having a very difficult time making ends meet, partly because I don't get unemployment insurance, and I'm very worried every day.
I would like to ask for your advice on what to do regarding unemployment insurance.
Any information, even if it is trivial, would be greatly appreciated.

On another forum, it was recommended to answer all calls now anyway, even though it could be a SCAM, because calls are coming from other numbers than UI numbers. Tomomi, is it possible that one of the numbers you didn't answer was a UI number?

Hiyori-san,

Oh, yes, it is possible that it is on the verge of becoming Processed and has been suspended for some reason. There are some locals who have been waiting for 4 or 8 weeks for Details not Available. However, a few of them have been able to get their cases resolved after a prompt call to the call center. I think the person in charge of cases like this one is probably an adjuster.

It is not easy to connect, but please continue to call the call center patiently and ask to be connected to the Adjuster.

Receiving Unemployment Insurance in the Mainland U.S.

Problem / Need advice

  • Mahina

  • 2020/12/13 21:13

I have been on temporary layoff since the end of March and have been living on unemployment insurance for a long time, but it is getting harder and harder to live in Hawaii with the high cost of living since my additional allowance from the government (LWA \ will end in December) and my rent assistance will also end in December.

I am still registered with the company and plan to return when they reopen at some point, but I am seriously considering moving out of my Hawaii home and staying with a friend on the mainland until I can resume work. I know that basically you cannot receive UI from out of state, but I have heard that there are some exceptions for cases within the US.

I am thinking of consulting the UI Office as a no-brainer, but if anyone has been temporarily evacuated to the US mainland in a similar case, or knows anything about these cases, please let me know.

Thank you.

I have a zero balance through December. I finally got a phone call yesterday and the pending was finally lifted. please advise me whether I should apply for PEUC or EB20. the deadline for UI is March 15.
Also, I had 2 JOBs in Hawaii and California, but the Employee place in Hawaii has disappeared from my system. I did not quit completely, but it disappeared after I told them I received a temporary furlough letter sometime when I got through to them. Since the only thing left in the system is my California employer, I was told, "You can't get an extension, you have to apply in California. I was told that I had to apply in California. Can I continue to apply in Hawaii if I don't have a place of employment in Hawaii?

Transcribed from "PEUC Unemployment Insurance 13 Week Extension Program" #832 written by isakura
↓
I started applying for unemployment insurance in April and my year expires on March 15. During this time, I returned to work occasionally in August, September, October and December. Because my payments were Pending all the time, my balance was not zeroed out and I was unable to apply for extensions for both 13 and 11 weeks. Recently the Pending was finally lifted, but as of December 12, it was zeroed out, but when I Reactivated in November, I had set the Hawaii work （ on-call work ） to Quit, so now I only have a record for the California work. When I called the other day, I was told that since my workplace is in California, I should reapply in California starting in March and apply with a back date after December 12. I will apply again in California from March, and apply with a back date after December 12. So, I have a question. I was told that I can't get an extension because it expires on the 15th, but I could have applied for an extension around August if I wasn't Pending. I am so frustrated. I am very frustrated. I live in Hawaii, but I worked in California and Hawaii, so when I applied last April, I didn't know which state I should apply in, so I applied in both states at the same time. It looks like I will be laid off this April, so I would like to continue claiming in Hawaii if possible for the future after April. If my job is 2 jobs, do I need to apply in the state where I have the highest income ？?

isakura,

"When I Reactivated in November, I set my Hawaii work （ on-call work ） to Quit, so now I only have records for my California work."
↓
If you called the call center to tell them that you received a Temporary Furlough letter over the phone, which you mentioned in #6, does that mean that in November you mistakenly selected "Quit" for voluntary retirement in the system ？? And you called to tell them that you received a Temporary Furlough letter with the intention of having it corrected recently ？

"I would like to change my Hawaii workplace, which I have not yet resigned from, to "still employee< quot;>can I continue to apply in Hawaii if I have it changed to "still employee "? If I have 2 jobs, do I need to apply in the state where I have the higher income job ？"
↓
Did the UI office in Hawaii decide that isakura made a mistake and made "Quit" and rejected it as it was? I think it was one of the following: either they rejected it after checking the income and company history of each of Hawaii and California, or they rejected it after asking the situation to the employer in Hawaii. I would suggest that you have the Examiner connect you through the call center and ask them more specifically why you were rejected. If there was a misunderstanding, I am sure they can correct it on the spot.

"Please advise me whether I should apply for PEUC or EB20, the deadline for UI is March 15."
↓
If the issue with my Hawaii employer is cleared up and the UI office re-approves me, I will be able to apply. Please read the "PEUC Unemployment Insurance 13 Week Extension Program" Topic or the "PEUC 11 Week Extension Program （ PEUC 2nd ）" Topic for the rules and differences between each, and make your final decision based on your own financial situation.

How to obtain an SSN

The SSN office has been closed for in-person business since last March due to Corona.
In the meantime, if anyone has obtained a new SSN or knows how to obtain one, I would love to know.
If it is not in Hawaii, it can be done in another state.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
I recently completed the process to change my name, I called the SS office and asked them to tell me how to apply for a name change.
I was told that they now accept all applications by mail, so I sent my passport, green card, Marriage License, Drivers License, and the application form by Certified Mail.
It took 2 to 3 weeks to receive the documents back in the mail, except the application form, and then another 2 weeks to receive my SSN card in the mail.


Here is how to get one

Here is the Honolulu office phone number

401K withdrawal under consideration.

If you can't work for the next few months due to the corona disaster.
Based on the fact that even if you could work, your salary might be cut in half.

I am considering withdrawing my 401K.

They don't charge the 10% fee normally charged for withdrawals due to Corona.
How long will that be ？

who has actually withdrawn without the 10% fee.
I would be happy to know.

Anyone familiar with 401Ks.
If you do, you should never withdraw.
If you have an opinion, it would be helpful if you could tell us why.

Please do.

I made a 401K withdrawal. It was deposited into my account within about 5 days of processing.
I am not a loan （ I also owe ） I made a withdrawal and usually have to pay a penalty ＆ fee of about 30% （ maybe more ） but this time they only took 10% due to hard living. Very reasonable. I am also off work all the time, but I did drop my 401K to pay my children's college expenses every 6 months. I think it is best to leave it as is, especially if you don't have to withdraw it, but I recommend it because the fees and penalties are cut drastically this time because of the special measures. The period is for the end of this year, but at this rate, there may be an extension. However, you need to check with your company's general manager. I read that it may not be possible depending on the company.

Hello.

I don't think they will charge 10% penalty fee in 2021.

I was going to withdraw in January this year because customer center told me that if I withdraw in 2020,

I will have to pay tax in the tax return procedure in 2021.

Then I was told that there would be a 10% penalty fee.

The law may change again when the president changes.

If anyone has withdrawn their 401k after 2021 and not been charged 10% penalty

I would be very interested to know.

Please do.
