Certain New Jersey workers trying to claim their unemployment benefits last week instead encountered an error message: The remaining balance on your unemployment claim is zero. No unemployment benefits are available for you at this time.
These claimants, who had collected more than 13 weeks of extended benefits and tried to claim during a certain time window last week, should now be able to certify for benefits this Friday during their given time slot, according to the New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development. They should not experience an issue going forward, said agency spokesperson Angela Delli Santi. Those affected should expect an email from the Department of Labor explaining what happened, Delli Santi said.

US states have significant power over how and when they administer unemployment benefits. Often, they use macroeconomic indicators, like the percent of the total work force claiming unemployment benefits or the Insured Unemployment Rate (IUR), to
take decisions on whether benefit extensions are needed. The covid-19 pandemic led to historic levels of unemployment, and a new study found that these
high-level indicators do not always adequately respond to the unique needs of unemployed workers and the systems they rely on.
