When we first got layed off a notice was sent to each and everyone what your unemployment benefits would be. Some people have been layed off, some furloughed off and on, some are on reduced hours that met the guideline for work share plus furloughed once a month..Some peoples benefits are going to be used up faster than others. What happens then?Even if these people quality for the extension where will the money come from?I must of missed something.
