Waiting week

[Golfnut]

Did anyone actually have their waiting week waived and got paid for it ??

Golfnut, yes I did. I needed to open a new book when this all started and I was able to get paid for it. I contacted them through email on the UI system and they responded accordingly until I was paid. Took almost 3 weeks to get it all set up but they paid me for the 3 weeks including my waiting week and the additional 600 from stimulus.

Thank you ! I called opened a new book 2 weeks ago ,got in touch with a tier 3 supervisor who straightened everything out About waiving the waiting week . She also said " I was extended till March. My UI page was updated and reflected what she told me . Said I had 130 something days left of Unemployment. Now I filed for this week , Got paid for regular week but still jot the waiting week and now it says my Benefit year will end after 24 more payment days. I've been trying to get thru to them for the past 3 days .., what a Fiasco !!!
