If you reside in New Jersey, you may be eligible for unemployment benefits if:
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), the federal stimulus package recently enacted by Congress and signed into law by the President, will provide an additional $600 per week through July 31, 2020 for those who are not working, working part-time, or are too sick to work in addition to the state benefits they will receive. The federal government will also cover an additional 13 weeks of extended benefits beyond that of the states.
Unemployment benefits under the CARES Act, but not under Pennsylvania state unemployment benefits, will cover those who do not meet the definition of “employee” such as independent contractors, gig workers, and self-employed individuals.
In New Jersey, independent contractors, gig workers, and self-employed individuals may also be eligible for state unemployment benefits.
If you have a question about unemployment benefits, please feel free to contact us at contact@nochumson.com and an attorney at Nochumson P.C. will immediately reach out to you to schedule a free consultation.
