Solis.
The funds will be used to conduct in-person assessments in One-Stop Career Centers. The assessments include the development of a re-employment plan for claimants, the provision of labor market information that is appropriate to the claimants' locations and employment prospects, a complete review of claimants' eligibility for Unemployment Insurance benefits, and a referral to re-employment services and/or training provided by the One-Stop Career Centers separate that is from the UI program.

Yikes! I didn't know a travesty like that had even been discussed before. I think a lot more than just us old boomers will get out in force to protest that. I can't imagine they would seriously consider reducing benefits to those already receiving them. On the other hand, my sister is currently getting a pension from Lockheed and she is worried that they are going to reduce her monthly amount. She worked for them for a little over 30 years.

Do I have everyone's vote?

It is up to the state. In RI, I am eligible for these assessments, online retraining, programs to update skills and other programs that will help us re-enter the workforce. This is fact - I, and a very good friend of mine, took advantage of this grant to help continue these programs, even though I have been without benefits for over two years.aloneinNY51 wrote:Sick n Tired wrote:Hunterforjobs wrote:What about those who aren't collecting anymore?

Just now noticed your latest critique of yet another one of my posts...my apologies for not catching it sooner.
According to my husbands experience with this, it was accurate. As administrators we are people too...NONE of us are perfect. My husband was told he did not qualify because he was no longer receiving benefits. That is here in mass.
