I don't know that is true, I would not go by the dates on the UI websites, At least here in Michigan they are never updated. I believe you will still be able to get the 99 weeks if they extend the dates out further.
Extended Benefits are provided under the Extended Benefits (EB) Program. There are currently up to 20 weeks of Extended Benefits available. However, to be eligible for any Extended Benefits, the individual must:
Have filed their initial claim for regular unemployment benefits effective on or before Monday, November 17, 2008.
Exhaust all available Emergency Benefits
Start claiming Extended Benefits on or before week ending June 6, 2010.
My claim was filed Jan 12 2009. So no more for me.
Sure it does, As long as you have only collected 73 weeks your going to be able to collect the 26 extra weeks. I really believe your mistaken on having to have filed in 2008 for the EB.

I really don't think those dates are up to date. Michigan has the same non sense on their website. The dates are always changing with all the bills and are not updated regularly. If anything I would call them to see if you qualify or not.

Yeah maybe. But by then for me? Too late. I'll be out of my house on my butt. And even if they approve at the end of the month how long til we actually SEE $? Ha. Gotta pay rent by July 1st.
