What if the unemployment office made a mistake on the status of a claim? for instance they stated I ran out of EUC benefits when it was only my regular benefits that ended.

This just happened to me, someone help!

yea, i just had this same BS happen to me. I got a letter saying my benefits were going to expire and that i had to call their office... At this time i am already on my EUC with about 4k left... SO of course i called them so i could continue receiving my money... The lady ran it through the system as if i were entering my initial claim, so they made a base period determination of the year i wasn't working, then i got another one with the pay period shifted back one quarter... but it wasn't what i already am getting, about 100 less... Then i got another paper saying i cannot apply for benefits until i earn a certain amount of what i had been paid (like if i was re-applying for unemployment AFTER finishing all my benefits)... Now I am worried that they are going to screw me out of my money, just like MD fucks everything else up... I called them like the letter said to do, and i stated I was already on EUC (but i seemed like she wasnt listening to what i said)... I had money left, and when i first applied i thought the account was good for 2 years, not one- but regardless I was given benefits, and I am very reliant on those as they are going to get me a job in a few weeks, and without my EUC I cant...

Hi Austin,

You know what .. I can't really help individuals with EUC problems .. it's happening everywhere and it's happening in almost every single state.

And the problem has to be with how the last extension passed.

The one thing I can assure everyone of .. is that when one benefit year ends a new claim must be established .. even so you can start collecting EUC's again that have a remaining balance.

There a really long thread about this same issue that keeps coming up over and over again.

Temporary Job Warning!

What makes it relevant is that base period thing.
