Minimum disaster unemployment assistance for July through September 2010
Summary ETA sent states a table of minimum weekly Disaster Unemployment Assistance amounts for major disasters declared July 1 through September 30, 2010. Most amounts use half the jurisdiction’s average weekly benefit, but the table marks that calculation inapplicable to Guam and lists a $310 minimum there. ETA now lists the letter as Canceled.
