UPDATE ON

PANDEMIC UNEMPLOYMENT ASSISTANCE

This extract from an announcement from the Governor's office about implementation of a new computer system that is speeding up the processing of unemployment claims mentions that claims for benefits for 1099, gig workers, and others normally not eligible for unemployment benefits, will begin being accepted "by April 30."

"Additional federal stimulus benefits, including $600 in additional weekly payments, will begin April 24

"Commissioner Westby today also announced that the processing for the Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation, which adds $600 in federal stimulus funds to every weekly state benefit payment, is scheduled to begin April 24. The additional funds will be included in Connecticut benefit payments the following week.

"In addition, the Department of Labor expects to begin accepting claim applications for Pandemic Unemployment Assistance – the federal program that provides benefits for self-employed individuals and independent contractors – by April 30.

"Benefits for both programs will be retroactive to the date a person needed to apply."
