When Will The $300 Extra Weekly Unemployment Start Being Paid in My State? News and Updates on Payment With PUA and PEUC Claims

[2022 Update] The $300 supplementary payment made in 2020 and 2021, ended in all states on September 6th, 2021 (some states ended it earlier).

Unless claims are in the adjudication process, At this stage all retroactive payments (including those for PUA and PEUC) have also been processed and no new payments are being made.

An extension of unemployment benefits, including the $300 payment, is not likely for 2022 and beyond unless economic conditions deteriorate significantly. I will post updates as they come to light.

____________

The latest (ARPA) stimulus package was passed by Congress and signed into law by the President Biden on March 11th, 2021. It includes further extensions to pandemic unemployment programs (PUA and PEUC) and an extra $300 weekly FPUC supplementary UI payment. The latest supplementary $300 payment will be paid over 25 weeks starting from week of March 15th, 2021 to September 6th, 2021. This is in addition to the previous extension covering 11 weeks from December 27th, 2020 to March 14th, 2021. Eligible payments will be made retroactively in cases where state unemployment agencies face delays with rolling out system updates to process these payments.

The $300 weekly unemployment payment will be made above and beyond any regular state or enhanced federal unemployment payment and require eligible claimants to certify regularly according to their state UI agency guidelines. Claimants will need to be eligible for at least $1 of an underlying unemployment benefit to receive the $300 supplemental payment under the Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation (FPUC) program.

You do not need to take any additional action to receive this supplemental payment. States are slowly rolling out these payments for different groups of claimants starting with those already getting regular UI and state extended benefits (active claimants). Those who have exhausted benefits prior to the extensions being rolled out or new claimants will only be able to get payments once their underlying claim is approved.

I will update dates in the table below as states implement these guidelines and start making making actual payments. Please leave a comment if you find updated or incorrect information reflected in the table and I will review/update accordingly. Details on why this payment could be delayed due to PEUC or PUA roll-outs are discussed in this video.

State unemployment departments and agencies will be responsible for disbursing these benefit payments, similar to the $300 LWA and earlier $600 FPUC supplementary unemployment programs. Given the many challenges and various payment issues across states with earlier supplementary UI benefit programs, I expect this to take some time to be rolled out and require retroactive payments to get claimants caught up. So stay tuned and subscribe to get the latest updates. You can also see this $300 FPUC video for more details on this program.


Lost Wages Assistance (LWA) program – Now Expired

The temporary $300 unemployment benefit under the Lost Wages Assistance (LWA) program funding has now been paid in all states who participated in the program. The program expiry date was December 27th, 2020 and this means that any new or retroactive payments under this program will NO longer be paid out going forward. This has been replaced by the new $300 FPUC payment discussed above.

This supplementary payment was a temporary, but much needed benefit for unemployed or underemployed workers who lost the supplementary $600 FPUC weekly payment at the end of July. There was a lot of confusion on when the $300 would actually be paid by state UI agencies which led to the creation of the LWA state tracker table below, which shows the payment status and actual or estimated future date claimants can expect their first weekly unemployment payment, if eligible. You can also see the 1000+ comments from readers that share their experiences around the LWA payment, including some very useful tips if you are facing issues getting your $300 LWA payment.

All states that applied and were approved by FEMA were only initially awarded three weeks of funding – covering the weeks of August 1st, 8th and August 15th.  After that, states and territories will need to submit a Lost Wages Additional Week Request one week at a time for funding to pay claims for subsequent weeks. However any additional funding is subject to the $44 billion budget that is available for this program and it is almost certain that funding will run out before the December 27th expiry of this program, unless Congress approves additional funding via a formal UI benefits extension.

In fact, at this stage approved states will only get a maximum of 6 weeks of funding (weeks covering August 1st to September 5th) for the LWA program per recent FEMA guidance to state labor and unemployment agencies that have already made several weeks of payments. Several states which started making the $300 payments earlier than other states have already been notified that their LWA funding allotment has run out and no additional funding beyond will be approved. Note however that some states like Florida will only be applying for and paying 4 weeks of LWA benefits, since they didn’t meet some of the LWA program qualification rules (details here).

Payment Start date is when the state actually started processing LWA payments OR is the estimated date of the first payment processing based on available information. Note: Due to bank processing delays, it can take 2 to 4 days after the noted dates for benefits to hit your bank account or debit card. Please see links to more information in the table or your state UI website for specific payment status. If you find any mistakes or have updates, please leave a comment below and I will update table to help others.

What if my state has started making payments, but I don’t see my $300?

Claimants in most states do not need to take any action to receive the new benefits available in this program. The additional benefits will be added automatically for all claimants who are eligible and have certified for the relevant week. Their self-certification will ask them to confirm they were unemployed or partially unemployed due to COVID-19. See more FAQs on this here.

However if your state has started making payments and you haven’t received payments you need to first confirm you are eligible. This means you must be receiving at least $100 in weekly unemployment benefit payments (pre tax and before any other deductions). This includes claimants receiving any type of regular unemployment insurance benefits as well as those receiving PUA and PEUC benefits.

If you are eligible and you have not received a payment in several weeks then you will need to contact your state UI agency to ensure the claim has been processed and is not being held up due to fraud, missing/incorrect payment details or due to a weekly or bi-weekly certification issue.

See more in this article on Why Your $300 Unemployment Has Not Been Paid or Delayed.

My state has been approved and the LWA tracker says payments are being made, but when will I get my payment?

The tracker provides an actual or estimated date for the when the LWA payments start being processed by the state. If a start date has been officially published by the state, you will see the status updated to “paying now.” Otherwise it is estimate based on FEMA guidelines or if confirmed by several sources online. However this date (week start date in many cases) may not be the same as the date the actual UI payment will hit your back account or debit card. The actual date you may see the money could be several days after the official state processing start date and tied to your normal UI payment cycle. You will need to confirm via your UI online portal or state agency for the exact payment date.

Also note the payment date is generally the date when payment starts. In many states, due to volume of people being paid, claims are paid out over several days (in batches, based on SSN or First/Last Name). And given processing by banks to disburse these payments via direct deposit or debit cards can take 1 to 2 days, it may take several days after the first payment date for you to receive your payment.

I got my $900 back payment but no payments after that. Why?

The first state LWA grant approved by FEMA was only for three weeks. Hence the $900 payment (3 x $300) is what most people are seeing first, less any taxes or withholding. Subsequent $300 payments are approved and paid on a week by week basis. This includes retroactive payments which will also be staggered. Rest assured if you are eligible for past weeks you will get your payment.

Also the maximum number of weeks that can be paid under the LWA program is 6, which means the maximum payment in most states is $1800 (or $2400 if the state was paying $400 p/week). After the payment of 6 weeks, you will revert to what you were getting under existing unemployment programs.

I am got my first week of payments but not subsequent weeks.

Kristin asked, “My son just got his first payment for the weeks of 08/23 thru 08/29 and 08/30 thru 09/05. He got the extra $300 for the week of 08/23 – 08/29, but did not get the extra $300 for the week of 08/30 thru 09/05. We are in Texas. Do you know why he got it the first week, but not the second week?

Every week is processed separately by the state UI agency subject to FEMA funding. So you may be seeing some variability due to delays in approval, claim processing and eventual bank/debit card payment.

  1. I am in Mississippi, I got my round in full today, 9/14, I think. The amounts are confusing. For instance, I got two deposits today, totaled together, they are still shy of around $42 of what I have been seeing + the $900. I have tried to contact someone at MDES for help with this. Offered explanations needed :)

    Reply
    • I’m in Mississippi, I got 3 separate payments; $300, then 2 for $600 (which I got yesterday). My bf just got his $1500 today, in the same 3 payments. His was direct deposit to the bank and he always gets his payments a day later than Me.

  2. Hi Andy, is there a reason that the tracker board still has Wyoming as unknown? They were supposed to start paying out Sept 13. Still nothing. I filed my last claim yesterday, will it be on my pay Wednesday,? I see alot of people saying they check their summary on their unemployment page, I don’t have a summary option? How do I check if a payment has gone out?

  3. Hi Andy…this is Kim from PA.
    It says we will start receiving our $300 payments on Sept.14th.
    There is nothing showing on my account or claim summary.
    I receive pua, which stated I did not have to apply.
    Will I receive it with my regular payment on Wednesday?

    Reply
    • In PA, LWA payments are made at the end of each week, meaning you will receive your LWA payments after you are paid benefit payments for one of the qualifying programs. This will result in your regular benefits and your LWA benefits being received approximately 1 week apart. See more on the dedicated PA UI page.

  4. Hey Andy is there updates on Arkansas I qualify for the LWA and it says their going to start paying on Sept 12 I just checked and it’s showing all I’m going to receive this week is my regular amount can anybody help me with this PLEASE

    • Just saw a recent update from AK – DWS plans to begin issuing payments the second week of September. Payments will begin no later than October 2, 2020. Benefits will be paid retroactively for those determined eligible as long as funding is available. So your payment may just be delayed.

      Also the good news for AK claimaints is that since the minimum weekly benefit amount for PUA is $132, PUA claimants who are otherwise eligible for benefits will automatically receive the $300 LWA benefit.

  5. I live in Utah, it says they are sending out payments . The date shows for last week and ends tommorow. I get over 100$ so I qualify but it shows I’m only getting my regular payment tomorrow and does not have any extra added ( the 300$ or 900$).. will it only come with your weekly payment or it can come separate ? Has anyone from Utah received any payments yet?

    • The LWA program in UT is for a total of six weeks and is available to individuals who received unemployment insurance, and meet all other eligibility factors, from the time period of July 26, 2020 through Sept. 5, 2020.

      The LWA benefits will primarily be paid out in two payments. Each payment will take approximately a week to distribute, following the approximate calendar:

      ● LWA Payments for July 26, 2020 through Aug. 15, 2020 – Payments began on Sept. 9, 2020, and will continue through Sept. 15, 2020
      ● LWA Payments for Aug. 16, 2020, through Sept. 5, 2020 – Payments will begin on Sept. 16, 2020, and continue through Sept. 23, 2020

    This is so frustrating to me, here we are starting another week and in California and I still haven’t seen not one $300 payment posted to my account. I guess by the time they get to me they will already be out of funds. Well anyway everyone keep your heads up and stay blessed.

    Reply
    • These are estimated dates. I’ll move out a week since no one from CT is reporting payments. Here is what the official site says – A total of five weeks of Lost Wages Assistance will be paid in addition to regular unemployment weekly benefits and will be retroactive to the claim week beginning July 26, 2020. It will also be available for claim weeks beginning August 2, 9, 16, and 23, 2020. Claimants will receive the supplemental benefit in several payments upon self-certification. The first payment of $300 is issued mid-September with the remainder of retroactive payments following in two or three separate payments.

Just a couple months ago I had a full time job and a home and now I’m practically homeless and alone. The cheapest hotel room here is almost $53 a night and I might get two nights out of the current amount I receive. I am on extended benefits and I have one week left. I have sent my resume out everywhere and I have heard nothing. I guess I’m going to try to look up local shelters. I really need anything extra I can get right now. I pray that N.C. adds the lwa soon or I’m done.

    • VA just confirmed on their UI website – The department’s IT team is in the process of programming for LWA. We expect programming to be complete and the agency to be in a positon to make payments September 30. The tracker table in this article has been updated.

      Claimants do not need to file a separate application to receive LWA. They will need to self-certify that they are unemployed/partially unemployed due to disruptions caused by Covid 19. (instructions for certification will follow)

      LWA will be retroactive to week ending August 1, 2020.

    • What does everyone who is waiting for the 300 in Ohio expect! As long as DeWine can delay the payment more interest money will be collected by the state. He and his team do not care if the citizens of Ohio are struggling, he only cares about how he looks doing his COVID TV updates, he could keep us updated during these updates on the status, but he chooses to ignore the issue. It is time to vote this November, vote out these elected officials who do not care about us! Senators and Congressmen also are to blame, no one in Ohio politics want to work together to solve the problem. Do not count on seeing anything extra on September 21! They will have an excuse ready to delay the payments.

    • I checked my claim summary on the ga pua portal and selected the lwa link and it showed that on Tuesday I will be receiving $900 for the first 3 weeks of August. I also read somewhere that they would be splitting the payments into two lumps sums. The 2nd to be deposited at the end of the same week you get your 1rst payment. I hope this helped, I understand how it is trying to figure this process all out. Idk why they didn’t simply deposit all of the back dated amounts at one time… ……

  35. Are there any updates on Georgia? GDOL said that there would be 2 separate disbursement batches, and I’ve seen conflicting dates of actual payments

    • Georgia- My UI Portal says $900 Payment submitted September 11th, since that was on a Friday I’m assuming the Pmts will hit my Card Monday or Tuesday

  36. ANDY,
    I have a question I’m in NC. I received the $900 for the first 3 weeks of august and have been reading that there are 3 additional weeks approved for the state’s getting funding. So can u tell me of NC is one of the states that FEMA has already approved for the extra 3 weeks of pay totalling up to 6 weeks total so far? Theres nothing posted on our unemployment website about payments.

    • Yes. All states can get up to 6 weeks. NC has to apply for extra weeks and FEMA will approve the additional 3. Just a slow process to make these out and you should see them in the next week or so if you are eligible for those weeks

      • West Virginia announced Friday FEMA has ended funding for the program. WorkForce will receive enough money to provide those unemployed an additional $300 a week from Aug. 1 to Sept. 5. The first checks are scheduled to go out Monday. So does this mean no one else gets the unemployment. I have no clue how this works. My physician placed me on high risk 2 weeks ago.
