Only 2.
Originally, when you applied for unemployment insurance, the duration is one year but the benefit is 26 weeks
Last time, or rather last year and this year, it was a special measure
because of the pandemic, right?
So I thought that meant that until June of this year, you were exempted from job search even if you had been laid off for the first time
and you also received extended benefits for a longer period than usual.
So I think that means it's back to normal.

The UI office has not announced any change in the 26 week payout rule.
The UI office has not announced any change in the 26 weeks rule. ↓
Your claim is good for a one-year period called the benefit year.

If you see the new balance in the Account Balance section of the Claim Inquiry screen, divide it by the new WBA on the approval letter you received in the mail. If the new balance is for 26 weeks, divide it by the new WBA on the Claim Inquiry screen. If it is for 26 weeks, it will mean that you will be paid the entire amount of that total until the Benefit Year End expires.

However, there are some differences between unemployment insurance for pandemic impact reasons and regular unemployment insurance for non-pandemic impact reasons, so you should double check with the call center to be sure.

Thank you very much for your kind advice.

I have heard that skipping the application may prolong the pendency,
that may be true, I will still try to apply under the assumption of Disqualified.

Thank you also for your advice regarding the 26 week payment rule.

I am basically on my own, but with the UI being hard to reach on the phone
it is very helpful to get more information here.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

In the meantime, if it doesn't show up, you can get it reissued ？

COCOA With all due respect, once you opened your mailbox and saw it was there, you absolutely should have received it immediately. If it had been lost, it would have been my fault and no one would have suspected it.

Especially if your husband doesn't make a lot of money.

If you contact the check issuer Child tax credit, they will know if you cashed it.

Dear Cocoa
Regarding the loss of the Advance Child Tax Credit check

Since you seem to be in trouble, I have provided the following explanation in the hope that it will be helpful.

I think you should contact the IRS to find out if the check has been lost or cashed.
Since your family did not receive the check, it will be a Lost or Stolen check and you will have to deal with it
I think the following is the best way to deal with it.

Please understand that it is not about whether the check was cashed or not, or who cashed it, but
the most important thing is to tell the person who received the payment that the check was not delivered, and ask them to reissue the check
and if they can prove that they did not receive it, then there is no problem. If you can prove that you did not receive the check, you should be fine.

Report a Lost or Stolen Check

Contact the paying agency and report the loss or theft.
You will be sent information on the check claims process, including forms you must return for processing.
After you have completed all the required steps, you can call and request and update of the status of your claim:

1-855-868-0151

You can also check your payment first through the IRS site
so you will be notified when your payment is due. You may also call and create an account on the IRS site

Child Tax Credit Update Portal

https://sa.www4.irs.gov/ctc/

Payments

If you're eligible, find advance Child Tax Credit payments for 2021 in the Processed Payments section.


Here you can check the check actually paid. You cannot check if the check has been cashed.


Payment amounts may change. Get more details about how we calculate the payment.

Processed Payments

In addition, you can change to bank account payments instead of check payments in the future, which will
prevent checks from being lost.

Manage Payments
Use this tool to:
• Check if you're enrolled for advance payments
• Unenroll from advance payments
• Update your bank account and mailing address
• View your payments
In the coming months you will be able to use the tool to notify the IRS about changes in your circumstances for 2021
in certain situations that will update the amount of your advance payment.

I'm a tax specialist, not an immigration specialist, so I can't give you a definite answer, but
if the interviewer told you to bring your tax return, I think he meant

Certified Tax Returns as explained below, not
a copy of a regular tax return. Certified Tax Returns.

Do you need tax returns to file for citizenship?
Your tax returns are very important proof that you are eligible for naturalization.
On the day of your interview, bring certified tax returns for the last 5 years (3 years if you are married to a U.S. citizen).


I think you mean download the Transcript of your last 5 years tax returns from Get Transcript
on the IRS site and certify that you have no outstanding income tax
etc.

You will need to create an account with the IRS to download this.
View Your Tax Account | Internal Revenue Service (irs.gov)
https://www.irs.gov/payments/view-your-tax-account

Once you create an account, you will be able to download a record of your tax return filings for the
5 years from 2016 to 2020 by selecting
Immigration from the Get Transcript section.
You can make a copy of it and take it to the examiner.

Aloha writes: Blue Cross is indeed inexpensive, but it has a split

I definitely do not recommend it. I would never recommend it, because once my cat got it because of its cheap price and I had a terrible experience with it.
If it is only for vaccinations and such, I think there is no problem. When I ask my friends and acquaintances, there are two types of people: those who say that it is inexpensive and recommend it, and those who shake their heads and say that they don't recommend it. I am the latter.
If you are going to spend a lot of time in the future, I think you should ask around by word of mouth or other means and make your decision.

By the way, we have VCA and we are in VCA's care club.
It's a little different from insurance, and it's about $50-$80, depending on the age of the dog or cat, but vaccinations, annual check-ups, etc. are free.
I don't know for sure since they are already a year old, but since they were in the care club, they were also spayed/neutered free.

I'm King Street now, but I've had both Blue Cross and King Street neutered, since I have four of them.
My impression is that they are both the same. Both were nice and friendly. But the prices were so different that I wished we had all gone to Blue Cross.
One of them went to VCA for medical care, but it was too expensive and I couldn't continue. I was very happy with this place too, but....
The care club was also quite expensive since my dog is a senior. We ended up going to King Street now.

Dear sunset and everyone
thank you for all the information.

I have received a Disqualified letter after filing my second initial claim and I have a question about it.

In my case, I was furloughed in June 2020, started receiving unemployment insurance, was laid off the first week of August, and my unemployment insurance ended on September 4 of this year, and I was paid from April to September 2020, my base period, so
I filed a second initial claim. I just received a letter yesterday saying I did not meet the benefit requirements.

It says that since I first started receiving unemployment insurance, I have not earned more than 5 times my WBA $ 3195, so it is invalid, but
the conditions for unemployment insurance benefits are that I must have earned more than 2 times my WBA in the base period (the first 4 quarters of the last 5 quarters before unemployment, or the last 4 quarters), the employer must have paid unemployment insurance premiums during two quarters.
that 26 times the Weekly Benefit Amount ™ (Weekly Benefit Amount, WBA™) has been paid for each week during the Base Period.
I called the UI office, but I can't seem to get through. If you could help me here, that would be very helpful.
By the way, my total income for July, August and September was $ more than 3159.
Total income from April to September was also 26 times the WBA ＄ over 16614.
However, from April to the end of September, the paychecks were not deposited every week.

Below is an excerpt from the letter in English.

After the beginning of your prior benefit year 06/07/20, you did not work in covered employment for which you were paid wages of at least $ 3195.00 (five times your benefit amount of $ 639.00).
As you failed to meet the qualifying wages requirement for the succeeding benefit year, your claim is invalid.

1173,
To all who received the same reason letter,

I shared it in #412 and #481 of the "PEUC September Extension Program （ Third PEUC ）" Topic, but I will note it here as well.

The requirements for a second Initial Claim application after September must meet the following ① to ④

① The benefit end year date of your most recent regular UI claim must have passed

② You must have returned to work and been paid at least 5 times your new weekly benefit amount since the first day of your prior initial claim

③ You must have been paid wages in at least two quarters of your base period

④ You must have been employed and paid wages for insured work during the base period in an amount equal to no less than 26 times your new weekly benefit amount

Link to:
https://www.hawaiiunemploymentinfo.com/end-of-the-federal-programs-2/

Furlough in May （ Furlough ） and Layoff in first week of August （ Total Unemployment ） In the case of 1173 who became Totally Unemployed , he was Disqualified because he could not meet the ② first condition due to lack of work income from re-employment after he became Totally Unemployed. The call center would probably explain the same thing.

If you have been temporarily laid off or become totally unemployed due to the pandemic and have never worked since unemployment insurance benefits started, it is very unlikely that your second Initial Claim application will be approved after September, as the UI office had also officially announced.

In addition, those who received unemployment insurance benefits while working part time or shorter hours are also expected to be disqualified or receive a small WBA if they file a second Initial Claim after September.

#4 I read CNN news by coco0701,

citizens and green card holders who have not been vaccinated are now strictly required.
Unvaccinated people need a negative certificate within 1 day.
There will be some cases where they will not be able to make the flight within 1 day.

Foreign travelers must have a vaccine passport and a negative certificate within 3 days.
Japan has apparently surpassed the U.S. vaccination rate, so
a negative certificate within 3 days is easier to obtain.

It is difficult for those who cannot be vaccinated for various reasons.

There are very few Japanese people around me, or perhaps it would be better to say
that there are none.

I know some Japanese people, but their daily life is about 90% English, except for watching Japanese TV
at home.

When I worked for a Japanese company, it was 80% English and 20% Japanese, but after the pandemic
I went back to a world where English is about 90%.

I prefer to be with the locals
and have a good time with them, rather than meeting Japanese people and having a good time with them. It's easier to have a conversation in English
than in Japanese, which I'm not very good at.
