Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation

The Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED) announced that the agency has now fully implemented the Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation (PEUC), which provides a 13 week extension of unemployment benefits for eligible applications.

Additionally, benefits for self-employed and contract workers are expected to be available by the end of the month – but you can and should start your application now. You can find more information on this and other unemployment benefits here.
