Yeah I’m wondering what happens after you pass that one year mark. I know you have to use the 26 weeks within a year or you lose them, just curious what happens after a year. If the benefits don’t carry over Y2Y I would assume the only way around it would be to apply for an extension

Ehhhh I’ll most likely have a job by then but thank you for the info! I was just curious in case my opportunities fall through.

That would make sense, I only worked 3 months so that probably didn’t qualify. I figured I’d try and see if someone had experience with this situation before I spent my day on hold only to speak with a representative that has no clue what I’m talking about

Lol exactly, I don’t see what the harm is in asking a question. People get so mad when you try and find an answer out an easier way.

I have a ton of experience dealing with MA UA over the phone and I can tell you it is not fun. When I got let go in October I called every single day for six weeks. I would be on hold for at least an hour every time only to have the automated message decide that there was no one available to take my call and it would hang up on me. Also, the “press 1 to have us call you back” never worked either. I waited 7 weeks without getting any benefits, the only reason I ended up getting them is because I called my congressman. Yes, now I am actually venting!
