Indiana Unemployment Extension
Federally Extended benefits (EUC) will continue unchanged until Saturday, March 30, 2013. Beginning March 31, the federal government has mandated states must reduce benefits by 10.7%. The Indiana Department of Workforce Development (DWD) will release additional information as it becomes available.
Unemployed Hoosiers who are finishing their first 26 weeks of regular state unemployment insurance and moving to federally funded extended benefits are now required to go to WorkOne for an in-person review of their work search records. Hoosiers who are required to visit a WorkOne will begin receiving notices in April. Anyone who fails will lose their unemployment insurance benefits. See DWD’s website for more information.
Beginning Sunday, September 2, 2012, federally extended unemployment insurance benefits reduced by 10 weeks. The change is a result of the federal legislation, which reauthorized the extended benefits earlier this year. Claimants who begin the federal extensions (week 27 of benefits and beyond) after Sunday, September 2, 2012 were eligible to receive a maximum of 63 weeks of benefits instead of 73.
Extended Benefits (EB)
Because the unemployment rate in Indiana recently dropped below a 3 month average of 9% unemployed Hoosiers will no longer be able to receive Extended Benefits, or EB. This program previously lasted for 20 weeks, from weeks 80-99 of the possible 99 weeks of benefits. The last day Hoosiers filed EB vouchers was Saturday, April 14, 2012. The last benefit payment for those receiving EB was made on Monday, April 16, 2012. No further EB payment is made after this date regardless of whether an EB recipient has weeks remaining in their claim. See DWD’s website for more information.
How do i qualify for federal unemployment benefits if i exhaust my 26 weeks of unemployment?
Chris,
The E.U.C(Emergency Unemployment Compensation) remains expired. There is no extension available. Please inquire further with the labor authorities in your state by calling them.
AS of 3/21/2016 does Indiana allow a person to file an extension for unemployment?
As far as I am aware, extension is not available. Please call the Unemployment Office.
I have just finished my 26 weeks and I have not been able to find a job. I am not 65 years of age, can I file for an extension??.
Please note there is no federal extension available.
My unemployment ran out the last week of December of 2015, first of January 2016, is there an extension available? I had read it would automatically be on the system, however I think that information maybe outdated as I have read differently in other sections of unemployment information.

As many previous people have asked before me, my 26 weeks of benefits have ran out. Is there any extension relief available at this time? Thank You
I do not see any light at the end of the tunnel for time being.
I have worked seventeen years at an newspaper and a basically being forced out due to age. It is possible but not for sure that I will receive 1000.00 per year as a “severance”. With my Social Security and “maybe” severance package will I still be able to collect unemployment? Also is there any way I can continue my life insurance as I am a disabled vet with type 2 diabetes still fighting with the V/A about my Exposure to Agent Orange.
Your qualification to receive UI benefits is dependent on a range of factors considering your age.
If you’re actively looking for a job,please consider applying for UI benefits. We do not have any information on your question relating to life insurance.Please contact a competent authority.
My benefits expired in Dec. of 2013, I was wondering if there are any extensions available? thought Obama authorized more extensions?
There is no extension available at this time.

If they are exhausted,there is not much one can do. It is not revolving.
