I hear people have been told by the state they will still get their Stimulus & Unemployment until Sept 2021
if they are already in a Federal Program !!! This needs to be clarified further , since it has previously said that
Federal programs would be ending for the Unemployed as of Jul 03 2021 !!!
I hear the state told people today that Only applied to the New people coming on , Not the Existing ones !!!
Very important that the state CLARIFY their system of Confusion !!!!
Well, I have sent messages twice now asking for this clarification as well as whether citizens from other states get cut off. All I have received is 2 replies stating that “a reply may take from 5 to 10 days”.
