Where you live is a factor when you're drawing EB against a different state.

Your remedy is to get out of TN and back to NJ so you can resume collecting your EB.

Yes. You are residing in Tennessee and collecting from NJ. TN triggered off EB April 7th. NJ EB is paid from federal funds. Federal unemployment Extended Benefits regulations require that BOTH resident state (Tennessee) and claiming state (NJ) be paying EB in order for EB be paid beyond the first two weeks.

9. I want to move to another state. Can I still collect benefits?

Yes. Your benefits are not affected by resident state triggers if you move, only those applicable to your claiming state. You cannot, however, collect EB if your new resident state is not also paying EB. Both resident state and claiming state must be paying EB. If your resident state is not paying EB, your state will pay you two weeks EB and then cease.
If it is any consolation, NJ is expected to trigger off EB with this week's BLS trigger report - which means last EB payable date for any NJ EB claimant, regardless of remaining balance, will be July 7. So, had you been living in NJ, at most you would be able to collect only another four weeks.
