Originally posted by Rainbow I dont know , has it been passed??? I looked on the PA Unemployment website and they said no extensions have been approved at this time. I've had some offers but seems like noone wants to pay a fair wage for experience . If it comes donw to it guess I'll have to go back into business for Myself. Did that routine for 4 years , made good money but the paper work is endless and I got overwhelmed. Guess time will tell for Us All.
I don't know about Pennsylvania, but Ohio has instituted the new extensions. It was in our paper with in the last week. I don't know if it's up to the states to determine if and when they implement it or if it's countrywide. It's worth checking into though if your that close to the end of benefits.
blebs99....Yesss you was right I just checked the website and they just passed it today 13 more weeks which should give me plenty of time to get things rollin...Im glad you mentioned it...I looked last week and I wasnt even gonna check...

Wow, I was going to mention that I've been out of work since just after Christmas (and right after having to buy a new freakin' engine for my car, mind you) and I'm still unemployed, but you now have the dubious distinction for current longest joblessness. I wish you the best, Rainbow, and everybody else in our situation.
I'm saddened by this post, so many bright people without work. I can truly say that I completely understand.
