pua certification
Hi
I finally figured out the process of applying for reg unemployment then getting denied then applying to PUA ( with issues of course) I had to fax in a tax form and my passport . Today finally I logged on and and there was new sections on my page that said certify , it had weeks staring from 3/27/2020 all the way to this week. You have to answer five questions for each week indicating that you are unemployed for reasons due to covid , have not accepted employment, but would otherwise be working if it was not for covid and that covid is the reason your not employee . I believe the first to answers are no no then yes yes yes . Then you say all the statements are true and then it turns green saying you certified . I did all the weeks and no payment has been issued to my direct deposit. Also when I try to go look at the weeks I certified it says that I reported income for each week? I’m totally confused . I know I’m eligible because it tells me my weekly benefit is 198 dollars and there is a total of over 7000 total for the benefit year. Do you know of any way to check on the status , or know what the correct answers are to the questions are if you were unemployed . I’m concerned I answered them incorrectly and will now be denied benefits.

The new PUA website is as confusing as the old traditional site. My suggestion is to wait to see if money starts arriving and just let it ride for now. I know that’s easier said than done –but this site is brand new, and there’s bound to be a lag between approval and the deposit. Will you write back and let me know in two weeks?
