if the EB theyre talking about is LONGER than the 20 weeks of Year 1 EB you wouldve gotten, maybe thats ok.
i think CA11 said something about a longer than normal EB for him. not sure.
I don't see how that's fair though. I mean, yeah, they screwed up. Everyone does. Adding weeks on to my EB is GREAT IF I'm still unemployed. I guess I'm bitter simply because the people who overpaid were forgiven. SOooo.. why not us?
i mean, whether it was the amount or the duration, the last 6-9 months for us was altered by their screwup.
dead weeks, smaller weeks.
i dont know if the overpaid were forgiven. they still had weeks slid up. and maybe one or two weeks burned in making up some mysterious dollar amount.
i wonder what the largest WEEKLY overpayment was. mine was $11 a week.
they will only want your last 4-5 weeks worth of search records , they will make a copy of them and give you a new form to fill out and bring back in four weeks. i actually brought all of my search records from year one to my first eligibility review for EB and i was the only one who was sitting there with a stack of papers lol. but the past 4-5 weeks is usually all they are looking for at each review.
i had a question about these reviews.
I filed online (internet) and my last job was for a software company (.com)
so my queston is, will they be so stringent on the "must make a face to face attempt"
I file MANY applications ONLINE. many places i go, face to face, they say "please go to our website and fill out an application"
so, are they going to shun me for doing most of my applying via the internet? I mean, consider my past job, for a software company, going forward 99% of any job attempt would be made through the internet. Its not like software company work is a "walk-in" type of thing...
edit : and i wanted to add, it says something like "your agent can approve non-standard forms of job application at their discretion" BUT as you know, via internet filers, we don't really have an "agent" and we don't regularly come into an office. wayyyyyy long ago i asked a phone agent if it was ok, and they said "as long as its a legit job, and you can put down the date, the company, and a manager/supervisor its fine"
this looks like the tiniest of good news, but dont be fooled. go to the full report at ncesc.com.
there are different numbers for seasonal and nonseasonal. and big differences in government employment. what would be the largest seasonal government job connected to September? would that be teachers?
supposedly 9600 seasonally adjusted government positions(what might those be?) filled, out of a STATEWIDE total job number of 10,100.
thats right, folks. not counting farm work or government, 500 jobs were filled across the entire state in September.
500.
easy math shows that to be 5 per county.
also, it would appear that with the number of unemployed dipping slightly, AND the number of people employed dropping, that people are...leaving. not sure there's any other way to interpret that.
Hi. I'm reading that some of you that started EB received your appt for review. I haven't received it yet and they have my EB start date of 10/10/10. (hmm I should go play the lottery with those numbers)
Anyway, do the reviews go by dates started? I just worry that they sent mine, and it got lost in the mail or something. Would my profile indicate if I had a review date?
For those of you that got a review letter, when did you start EB?
I also didn't receive a refund for the 50% as I'm reading some people did. I did appeal on the last day deadline.
^i doubt they expected to see you yet. i would say 3-4 weeks from your EB start date. if you file for benefits Sunday, and get them, you arent being held up from a missed review.
