What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
I received a letter just before Christmas notifying me that I had collected all of the unemployment benefits currently available to me.
It mentions that Congress hadn't acted (at the time) to extend the filing deadlines for Federal extension benefits or added any additional extention benefits. Therefore, unemployed workers who had collected all benefits available didn't have any more payable weeks to claim.
I was then encouraged to monitor EDD's website for Congressional developments and further extension related updates.
At the end of the letter, EDD made it clear they were issueing the letter only for informational purposes and that there was no need to contact them regarding the notice.
As we know, extensions were okayed to at least the end of January. Is this something that will effect people like me or are we finally out of the loop? It's a waste of time to call because EDD automatically disconnects people after informing them that there are a lot of people waiting to speak to a representative.
