Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC) Extended to January 2, 2013

EUC is a 100% federally funded program that provides benefits to individuals who have exhausted regular state benefits. The EUC program was created on June 30, 2008, and has been modified several times. Most recently, the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 (P.L. 112-96) extended the expiration date of the EUC program to January 2, 2013 and made several modifications to the program.

Please note that this enactment does not provide additional weeks of benefits to individuals who had already exhausted all entitlements under previous law.
