Your stupid Governor needs to start to loosen the restrictions. This is when I get pissed. Let the people make their own choice, Not some government fool making it for them.

I am really sorry to hear this and I feel for you. My brother is an independent contractor. He is a sound engineer and his livelihood is working large scale conventions. He has been out of work since the beginning of this thing! Same goes for my wife.

Hopefully things will change for you. Our Governor announced yesterday that elective surgeries could start up again on May 1. Make sense to me. Sterile environments and no one is going to be operated on that is sick!

My brothers friend in Peoria was admitted to the Hospital this past weekend. He stopped eating and couldnt walk. Not sure if it was an ER visit or not though. Its been an ongoing issue with him. He had a colonoscopy and bloodwork done.

Sorry to hear that. It is crazy times. One of my racing buddies actually broke his foot at the last track event two days before the shutdown here. His wife is a nurse manager for Banner and he works in facilities. He was put on furlough and told that he needed surgery on his foot but it would have to wait until they could figure out heads or tails of the COVID crisis. He finally got it about a couple of weeks later.

Even if you apply now it will be August before you receive a check. They are so backed it is stupid.

Id take voluntary, but its weeks to get unemployment started plus the extra $600 goes away in July, takes hours every week to go through to put in your claim. ugh. Maybe I should do voluntary and get used to the system before it possibly and most likely becomes mandatory layoff.

Not sure how it is in the far north but in IL UI filing takes maybe 15 min the first time you file. 5 min every time after unless you have address/ job/dependency changes to make. And bi-weekly filing is less than a min. All done online or over the phone via an automated system. A phone call to claim weeks is a little longer than online but it's no more than 5 min.

Michigan's UI systems are so backed up they had to pull phone bank staff off the phones to work the applications. Some initial payments take 5 weeks to process.

That is quite easy lol. Here the UI application doesn't address small business owners that have no employees. So you complete the application which is about 30 minutes. You get letters starting you don't qualify and forms to provide information that you have already provided. They tell you to complete the weekly claim anyway as they will fix things on the backside. It is just freaking circle jerk.
