I have questions about this - too

Posted: Apr 5th, 2020 - 3:04 pm In Reply to: Unemployment $600/week - SM

But I agree with the other poster who cautions about not actively job searching while on unemployment...Maybe during this pandemic they're loosening the requirements on that, but usually it's a very, very strict system. Our industry is pretty unique in that most of us work from home already, so I really wonder if they would expect you to actively job search anyway for other at-home positions?

I think the people they're focusing on right now for added benefits are those who mainly work outside the home, whose companies have completely shut down, and don't really have much of a chance for finding similar employment any time soon.
