You Might Qualify For An Additional $600 In COVID-19 Benefits
Under the Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation (FPUC) states are giving qualified residents an additional $600 benefit from the federal CARES Act.
Eligible residents are those who are self-employed, normally excluded from receiving benefits from the state, and all 1099 workers. If you or someone you know meet these requirements, you will more than likely qualify for the additional $600 benefit. By the way, it’s retroactive for weeks filed back to the week-ending 4/4/2020.
Watch the video below for all the details.
