Missouri
Missouri is also among the states that were approved to take part in the FEMA Lost Wages Assistance program as of Aug. 15. Missouri’s unemployed residents will get an additional $300 per week.
“We are awaiting [on] additional guidance from FEMA and the U.S. Department of Labor while continuing to work as expeditiously as possible,” Rose Delores, a spokeswoman for the Missouri Department of Labor and Industrial Relations, told MarketWatch recently. She said the state’s Department of Labor website will be updated with more information when it’s available, “including any additional eligibility requirements and timelines for payment.”
