[California] I applied for PUA (1099) early morning 4/28 and my claim seems to be accepted but my claim balance is $1966?

[resjudicata]

@jesusmaryandjesusandjesus That's correct but if he qualifies for regular unemployment then he gets regular unemployment. He can't choose, unfortunately.

@paigerific87 It looks like that doesn’t include the extra 600$ per week. I also read something g that said they would adjust the original weekly amount up once they can verify your income.

 

[jesusmaryandjesusandjesus]

@nolab123 The $600 from FPUC is sperate from state unemployent it doesn't show up there

 

[thomasking88]

@jesusmaryandjesusandjesus Where is the FPUC $600 displayed?

 

[nevay]

@thomasking88 You see it when you look at the claim history. The payments for each week has the 600 added to it. It just doesn't show on the balance or main page.

 

[jperenon]

@nevay Right. Because it’s not part of your claim balance. It’s coming from a different pot, per se.

 

[jesusmaryandjesusandjesus]

@thomasking88 No where. Any payments starting the week of 04/05 gets you $600 additional. Untill the last pay period in July

 

[jesusmaryandjesusandjesus]

@thomasking88 It doesn't show any where. Any payments starting the week of 04/05 gets you $600 additional every week. Untill the last pay week in July.

 

[leatherlip]

@paigerific87 As long as you don’t make more than $85 a week , you still get an extra $600 a week!

 

[wyarwehere]

@paigerific87 It took me about 30 days to see my money from the time that i applied, edd is the absolute worst!!

 

[asus3408]

@wyarwehere What were you seeing for that time? I’ve been at $0.0 since I applied in 4/3. I even reapplied and it went back to that

 

[wyarwehere]

@asus3408 Mine was stuck on “pending” for three weeks before it cleared. Im sure their even busier now than when i applied so it could take even longer

 

[rickydx]

@wyarwehere Meh, get over it

 

[alic84]

@paigerific87 I’m in a similar situation as you. Did you already get paid out? I already an edd card from the past so I can use it right away.

 

[jesusmaryandjesusandjesus]

@alic84 He can't certify till 05/10 he hasn't gotten paid. He's on regular unemployent

 

[alic84]

@jesusmaryandjesusandjesus In the pua faq, it said people on ui can be back payed the 600 from the feds back to either day of last worked or when it first was paid which is the week of March 29th. He may need to call in to get that though. I wish they at least matched the benefits to pua.

 

[jesusmaryandjesusandjesus]

@alic84 That's PEUC. PUA back dates all the way to 02/2020... I think that's why they wanna pay PUA claims before PEUC. So they can pay the lower weekly amount from PUA

 

[alic84]

@jesusmaryandjesusandjesus No, they want to pay for UI first, that is why he got UI instead of PUA. In this case for PUA, he would have gotten at least the base amount of 167 with is more than what UI gave him her.

Also, with regular UI, it says you can call to backdate the effective claim date here and here.
