I have exhausted, or will soon exhaust my final 13 weeks of Extended Benefits (EB). Are there any additional extensions of unemployment insurance?
A new federal unemployment insurance expansion bill, known as the Worker, Homeownership, and Business Assistance Act of 2009 (Worker Assistance Act) was approved November 6, 2009 and provides for additional weeks of Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC08). For Connecticut, in addition to the 33 weeks of EUC08 currently provided under Tiers 1 and 2, one additional one week of unemployment compensation benefits will be added to EUC08 Tier 2, and 13 weeks will be provided under EUC08 Tier 3, for a total of 14 additional weeks of EUC08 benefits. These additional weeks will be provided to all claimants upon completion of EUC08 Tier 2 benefits, provided claimant is eligible.
