I'm going to have to call the NJ Dept of Labor on Monday, because the website is not very helpful -- although it does give me hope when read one possible way:

Quote:The deadline for qualifying for the federally-funded EUC Tier 1 extension was May 23, 2010. If you are already collecting on one of the EUC Tiers, in order to qualify for the next tier of benefits, you must exhaust your current tier with week ending May 29, 2010. Proposed legislation to extend the filing deadline is currently being addressed by the U.S. Senate. If this bill is approved, it would only extend the dates of the eligibility periods in the current EUC benefit tiers. It does not add any weeks of benefits. If you have a remaining balance on your current EUC Tier, continue to claim your weekly benefits. We will notify you if the U.S. Senate extends the eligibility periods of the current EUC benefit tiers.Italics mine -- I definitely have a balance left on my current tier, and this seems to imply that this balance will be continued to be paid. But I need to confirm that this is in fact the case.
