President Obama has officially signed a bill allowing 14 additional weeks of emergency benefits for those collecting unemployment. Information on another 6 weeks added to this extension is still pending as is clarification on claim dates and qualifications.

--The first payable week of this new extension is the week ending November 15th, 2009. --Retroactive payments cannot be made for individuals who exhausted all extended benefits prior to the week ending November 8, 2009.

New York State Department of Labor indicates that you should simply continue claiming your weekly benefits. More information is forthcoming.
