This question is in the pua application are you qualified


Check Box/ unemployment claim with DUA UI Online that ended after July 5, 2019 and there are no benefits left.

I have no official confirmation, but it's on the application and I went for it. I would think this is an easy one to get done fast as no checking for info is needed because UI has it.


Now it told me to wait to hear from them to start filing.


This also means a full 39 weeks, not just 13.

Maybe that question is how they will separate the new claims for 39 weeks from the 13 week PUEC extensions? Not sure though.

It looks like exhausted benefits is not part of regiular UI. They will probably have something for that later.



39 is 26+13. PUA is just combining it. The 600 runs out in July either way unless they renew it.

States will ask and get money from the Federal government to cover it. MA governor has or will ask for 1.2 billion
