When extra jobless weeks start and stop

Nevada turns "on" extra unemployment weeks when the 13-week insured jobless rate is at least 120% of the same 13-week average in each of the last two years and at least 5%, or at least 6%. It turns "off" when that rate is below 120% of those past averages or below 5%. Extra weeks start the third week after an "on" week and end the third week after an "off" week or after 13 weeks; a new period cannot start for 14 weeks unless federal law allows earlier. For certain pandemic-era weeks beginning March 18, 2020 through the week that ends four weeks before the last week of full federal sharing under Public Law 116-127, or weeks the Governor names, Nevada is "on" if the 3-month seasonally adjusted jobless rate is at least 6.5% and at least 110% of the same 3-month rate in one of the prior two years. The insured unemployment rate equals average weekly claims over 13 weeks divided by average monthly covered employment from the first four of the last six completed quarters.

Who qualifies and choosing your benefit

You are an "exhaustee" for a week if you already received all regular, seasonal, or nonseasonal state jobless benefits before that week, or your benefit year ended and you do not have enough wages to open a new year that includes that week. You also must have no right to certain federal or Canadian unemployment benefits, or be finally denied them. If you qualify for both additional benefits and extended benefits in the same week, you can choose which one to claim, even if they come from different states.
