posty 2,296 Posted April 6, 2020 When I got unemployment, it was never $600... Do you mean the "stimulus" check that some won't even get? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My GF was unemployed for a couple months in 2018/19 and was receiving just under $700. Something like $690 I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dain11279 927 Posted April 6, 2020 On the bright side my buddy with a wife and 4 kids will be getting $4400 back from the stimulus. On the downside he still has a wife and 4 kids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, the feds are adding $600 to weekly state unemployment checks. Or maybe it is a max of $600 based on what you had been making, which would make more sense. I think up to 4 months. AZ is also extending eligibility for another 3 months but that is state-specific. The stimulus check is independent of that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lickin_starfish 1,479 Posted April 6, 2020 Max rate in NY is $504, plus the $600 per week, plus the $1,200 per adult taxpayer, plus $500 per kid. Unemployment rocks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
