If you happen to be one of the many who have found out that you may be losing your unemployment benefits even though you still can't find work, it's time to act. Ask about the extended unemployment options that are available to you and see what you need to do to qualify for these extended benefits in your state.
In Indiana, after the original Tier I period of 20 weeks, the Tier II extension is for 13 more weeks, for a total of 33 weeks. If Indiana qualified under the law signed by President Obama 11/6/09, ut to 14 more weeks would be available. See the Related Links below for more information.
I believe it is for three different times......or up to 59 weeks?
you have to call in each week in order to get your extension
I'm pretty sure that the "stimulus plan" does not allow that, any more than your state unemployment compensation plan does. Where I live (Ohio) the only change in unemployment compensation has been an extension in benefit periods, and even that has expired.Another answer:As many state unemployment laws DO provide benefits for reduced hours, it stands to reason that any extensions would follow suit.

Yes, it does. Illinois unemployment law allows the state to reduce your unemployment compensation by 50% of your Social Security benefit. Illinois is one of only five states that still apply an offset to unemployment. For more information, see Related Questions, below.
The employer pays a percentage of payroll as unemployment insurance premiums.
In general, no.
It's the other way around. Half the amount of your Social Security benefits are deducted from Illinois' unemployment benefits. Illinois is one of only three states that still applies a 50% offset to unemployment.
If you are referring to the payments of unemployment benefits, contact the office that sent them to you.
