ALBANY, N.Y. — If you apply and receive unemployment benefits, Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation (FPUC), you may have noticed the extra $600 is not there.
No worries, you will still get your money. NYS Department of Labor officials say a system update caused a delay in the release of $600 FPUC payments.
They says the issue has been corrected and FPUC payments will be processed Monday, and you will receive your money this week.
NYS Unemployment insurance and Pandemic Unemployment Assistance was not impacted.
The last week of the FPUC ends the week of July 26.
