The Unemployment Extension, formally known as Emergency Unemployment Compensation, is a US federal government program which assists states in providing additional weeks of unemployment benefits to workers who have been laid off due to no fault of their own. Because of the current economic situation in the United States, many individuals are having a much more difficult time finding work than they anticipated.
Depending on a state's individual unemployment rate, workers have been offered extensions of unemployment benefits through four different tiers. A worker who cannot find a job for an extended period of time can move through the four additional tiers of extended benefits before their unemployment income is finally cut off.
In June, 2010, the existing benefits program expired, and it took until July 22 for the President to be able to sign a new bill that the Senate and House of Representatives finally passed.The new extension is viable until November 2010.
