Statewide – All unemployment insurance compensation programs created by the federal CARES Act are currently scheduled to expire on Dec. 26 without further Congressional action. In Indiana, the two programs that will be affected are Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) and Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation (PEUC).
Claims can end prior to the December 26th expiration if they receive the maximum number of weeks; or exhaust benefits by running out of money on the claim. In either circumstance, the Remaining Benefit Amount will show $0.
When the PUA and PEUC programs expire, all payments for weeks after December 26 on those claim types will stop, regardless if the claim has a Remaining Benefit Amount over $0.
