The ranks of the unemployed for Arkansas reached 7.2% percent. If you are one of the people hit by the rising rate of unemployment, it is easy to be concerned about what happens when your benefits end. The good news is that you can be eligible for extended benefits due to federal economic stimulus legislation.
The legislation provides you the opportunity to get an extension of about 13 weeks on your Arkansas unemployment benefits. The last week to be eligible for the extension is December 26, 2009. Another provision is you will be able to receive $25.00 extra every week. Finally, you don’t have to worry about paying federal income tax on the first $2400 of unemployment benefits you receive in 2009.
There are two ways to file for your benefits. You can file an Arkansas unemployment claim at any of the Department of Workforce Services office. You can also mail in a completed form that you can obtain at most public buildings.
You can go online to www.state.ar.us/esd/index.htm to view the Arkansas Department of Workforce Services website. It provides information about the unemployment insurance process and provides locations for the different Arkansas unemployment offices. The more informed you are, the better chance you have to get the benefits you need.
In order to receive benefits from the state of Arkansas, you need to be unemployed as well as being physically and mentally able to perform suitable work. You need to be available to work any shift that’s necessary for the type of job you are looking for. Also, you need to make a reasonable effort to find a new job. Finally, you must be free of participation or direct interest in a labor dispute.
It is important for you to file for Arkansas unemployment benefits just as soon as you can because you must wait a week before you start receiving benefits. The week must be a full week that follows the requirements for eligibility.
The federal government and the state of Arkansas know that it is very challenging to be unemployed. Be sure to use the resources available including extended benefits so you can have some income while you search for a good job.
