Unemployment benefits May 2020

By Terry Savage on May 21, 2020 | Wild Card

My 18 yr old was working two jobs in the restaurant industry and got shut down due to COVID19. Although he has been out of work since March, we have been searching for jobs with no luck, and just recently filed for unemployment (mid-May). Will he receive payment for all the lost weeks he was off starting in March, or does it start when he filed now on May?

Terry Says

He should receive back payments dating to the date he lost his job.
