Why does he have to wait so long to get his unemployment benefits?
Because in 08 he had to file,he used up all of that . Then thankfully he returned to work in January. So we thought we were covered when he did his 6 mos. Evidently that was not long enough and he had to wait until October to qualify again.
This year is not as bad. We saved a good bit of our tax return and were able to coast until now.
