I have 8 years of railroad service and I ran out of my normal unemployment benefits on January 15, 2009. Am I eligible to receive the special extended unemployment benefits?
Yes, you would be eligible to receive up to 65 days within an extended period consisting of 7 consecutive 2-week registration periods. Your extended benefit period would begin on January 16, 2009, and benefits would be payable provided that you were still unemployed and ready, willing and able to work.
