Dec PUA message

By Terry Savage on February 15, 2021 | Wild Card

Received email from IDES telling me to follow instructions on IDES website to get new PUA with bump. There are NO specific instructions there to follow. Didn’t file tax returns last few years because I didn’t earn enough money so I can’t send those in. Don’t know what govt wants me to do. What do I do? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Terry. You’re awesome!!

Not sure I understand your question. Are you currently receiving PUA unemployment insurance? Or does this communication come as a complete surprise? If you are receiving disabiity, there should be no need to file anything else to get the additional $300 — and the extended benefits. But you can leave your number for a callback if your checks stop –or if you don’t get the extra $300.

Now, if this communication comes as a complete surprise, and you haven’t filed for unemployment, then go to the IDES website and file a fraud complaint.
