New requirement for unemployment benefits starts May 30th

A new requirement for those receiving unemployment goes into effect May 30.

 

It means the unemployed will have to show proof that they are actively seeking work while collecting.

 

Michigan’s 800,000 jobless residents will still receive a $300 weekly federal supplement, though all seven of the state’s Republican House members want Governor Whitmer to end those payments, which are on top of the $362 maximum weekly benefit.
