Utah was also one of the first states to apply for the FEMA LWA program, getting approved on Aug. 16. Unemployed residents should expect an additional $300, but it may take up to four weeks for them to receive the money, according to The Salt Lake Tribune.
“We want to emphasize that this benefit is currently time-limited to only a three-week period and not everyone who has filed an unemployment claim will be eligible,” Kevin Burt, director of the Unemployment Insurance Division for the Utah Department of Workforce Services, said in a statement. “We will continue to work with FEMA and the U.S. Department of Labor to pursue any additional funds for Utahns that may remain after the initial three-week period of benefits are distributed.”
