Three more weeks of lost wages assistance

By Crystal Staley/Sebastian Kitchen

Gov. Beshear announced Monday that Kentucky has applied for three more weeks of Lost Wages Assistance through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Each week will be paid separately.

"Today, we have applied for three additional weeks of unemployment insurance coverage of the extra $400 a week for those that qualify," said Gov. Beshear. "If accepted by the federal government, those that qualify for those additional dollars will receive their $400 extra for the weeks of Aug. 22, Aug. 29 and Sept. 5."

Eligibility criteria for the program:
  • Individuals who receive at least $100 per week in unemployment insurance compensation for each week covered by FEMA's Lost Wages Assistance program; and
  • Individuals who have self-certified that they are unemployed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
