From Chris in #AZ05 ➡️
"My wife was one of the first round of layoffs as soon as the pandemic became a serious reality. Her boss let her know that she would not deny unemployment when filed. ...
"Over 2 months have passed since that filing and my wife has a debt card from the unemployment office but there is nothing on it. No one to call, no way to check ......
"...and while the notification originally was $240 per week (Insanely low) with an addendum that an additional $600 per week was on its way, she's looking for jobs trying to be as non dependent as she can on the state system. ...
"...But 2 months without anything is hurting the ability to pay rent, bills, car payments. ...
"...The $1200 stimulus came immediately and helped immensely but I feel the state should have a workflow in place for future issues so as to not completely overwhelm and shut down the states ability to provide semi competent aid in times of need."
