This morning i received a call from and spoke with someone from the Utah Department OF Workforce Sevices(Unemployment). I clearly stated to him that i had been quarentineed since December 17 for the second time. I tested positive again for covid. I stated multiple times that although i had been and was still experiencing symptoms from the virus, i had been able, available, and actively looking for full time empoyment. I stated i had Been consistently making and documenting the four job contacts a week requirement. I said i had been seeking full time employment that offered remote positions. This is what he said in the letter i got from him...

"You have not been able to work full time because of illness, injury or disability. Benefits are denied under Section 35A-4-403(1)(c) of the Utah Employment Security Act beginning 12/27/2020 and ending when you meet the requirements for eligibility. The Act provides that a person must be able and available for full-time work and be making an active, good faith effort to seek work to be eligible. You will be notified separately of any other issues on your claim." #benefits #covid #eligibility #coronavirus # #utah
