I've filed but as a self-employed CA business owner and am receiving UI. Neither my husband or me are incorporated - neither of us are W-2 employees. What I don't understand is how is it financially workable that we must report GROSS earnings when we have to pay employees and other direct expenses from our earnings? EDD asks for our NET INCOME at year-end but we are told to report GROSS EARNINGS when we certify! Do you or any of your followers have any feedback on this? Thanks so much!

Hi Ginny, It appears they have made some changes. I went in to the portal today and did have to certify for the two weeks preceding 5/9 to receive benefits for them (however the previous 2 weeks appeared to have been auto certified as i have already received them). Also the page to explain the work search did not appear, even though I had answered yes to trying to resume work. Perhaps because it is an unnecessary amount of work for both us and the EDD to review considering there really is no work to be had.

Hi! It all depends on your you use and receive the funds. If you received the EIDL grant to your BUSINESS bank account and used it towards BUSINESS expenses, it would not be personal income. If you transferred funds to a PERSONAL ACCOUNT - either that's where it was deposited or you did an owner's draw and moved the money from your business account into your personal account, it is INCOME and would need to be claimed.

In order for a claim to be valid the constituent needs to meet minimum wage and work requirements over a base period of time. The constituent indicated that they are self-employed. There are no wages to qualify the constituent for a new claim. The constituent was on a PUA claim with an end date of 9/4/2021. The PUA claim was a special claim from the C.A.R.E.S act but this is no longer applicable.

Great video. Question. For the certification completed in the video, did you have any issues reporting your income for this pay period. Two years later I'm barely now certifying for benefits. I was one of the claimants who claim was stuck all these months. One week, I earned $800, which according to my pending claim on EDD is considered full-time so I obviously won't get any benefits that week. But hence my biggest concern. My dashboard updated to this: Pending Eligibility - Phone Interview Will Be Scheduled We identified an issue that could make you ineligible for benefits. We need to confirm your eligibility in a phone interview. After doing research, I learned that the max a person can receive in wages is 600 per week. Anything over that can disqualify someone's entire claim. I am self employed too. Did this happen to you? THanks much.

Hi Hai! Each week you will need to certify and must claim your earnings for that week. I do not believe that you will qualify for the federal $600, as this is still unemployment funds intended for those who are not earning any income. HOWEVER, since your business is impacted and its hard to say how things may pan out for your income each week, you *may* want to consider keeping your PUA open, certifying each week, and should you have any weeks where you must be closed due to covid related issues (closures, restrictions, illness, or lack of customers/staff) you will have benefits for those weeks. I am unsure how many weeks you can earn income and still keep your PUA active with the EDD, so this is just my best guess given your circumstances.

I have been reporting doordash income do I also have to report my marketing income too? I only profit 20% on marketing income which is very small. This week I'll be making about 1500 income for the month for marketing clients. Do you know if I can subtract $1500 attorney fee for my dui case for this week, and on the regular can I subtract $250 weekly rent, gas, food that I pay to be able to live and work in la market? So I do my accounting numbers and subtract it therefore declaring just my net weekly income?

Hi! GROSS is your total sales amount (before expenses are subtracted), while NET is your takehome pay after expenses have been subtracted. You must report what you pay yourself out as net income, however make sure that you have a careful means to prove this just in case - I recommend taking all payments into your business account, and paying yourself through an owner's draw by transferring your personal income to your personal account, which is what you would then certify for.

Hi when I log on to the UI online it doesnt let me " certify for edd benefits". I got the letters in the mail to do it via mail but I wished to do it online to make it faster. When I log on it only shows "File new claim" and "register and manage". Did you know how to fix this?

Week 1 Certification Status N/A Week 2 Certification Status N/A I am self employed and original filed when they did not have their paper work up right for self employed filled papers through the mail.

It took about 10 trys, but if you press #1 for English and then #0 immediately after, you can just try over and over until you reach the hold line.

Hey, so I received my paper of acceptance for PUA on 6/18 and couldn’t get on my UI on like. I tried calling and couldn’t get on call until coming across your video and trying your method. I just barely got my account number and was able to log on, but there wasn’t anything for me to certify my claim. Is there a reason why? Is it because I had missed the certification date because it showed that For certification week one N/A and then it said certification week 2 N/A. If so would I need to redo my claim? If you have and advice for me I would really appreciate it.

Hi! Don't reapply - your claim is already in progress and moving forward. In some cases the first two weeks are marked NA as they have pushed the certifications through automatically in order to issue a payment - but it would then move to a paid status shortly after. You'll need to call in again and get a rep to help unfortunately.

Hello, I have a question regarding PUA certify. My mom qualified for it, but I can’t seem to be able to certify. I know that we have to certify every two weeks as per the letter says, but I don’t seem to have the same notifications or see the bell icon that say I have to certify. My mom’s claim effective date was 3/15/20 of this year and got the mail at around 6/04/20, so it took a long while for sure to get a notice about it, but I still can’t seem to find a way to certify online. Is there something I’m missing? I just want to know since phone lines has been packed and I have no idea what to do. Thank for reading and I hope to hear an answer from you soon.

Hi! I am guessing you saw your claim balance go down? This is because your claim balance is your total pool of benefit money. As you are paid out for your weeks, the money in this claim balance is disbursed to you, the claim balance decreases with each payment issued until you reach 0 meaning that all money in your benefit has been used up.

Hi again. Thanks for the helpful videos, I have shared with others who have been wondering how to go about PUA. I have a question: If the amount you made in one week is OVER the amount you would receive in PUA in two weeks, does it effect ONLY that one week or as many as those funds cover. ie. if your benefit is $167/wk (plus $600 some weeks) and you net $400 in one week, will that effect payments for just the week you made the money or for 2 weeks (seeing that $400 is more than 167x2.) I have looked through a lot of the comments and do not see info on this particular question. Thank you!

Answer the question below". to which i say NO, is that OK?
@ginnysilver
4 жыл бұрын
question 6: Did you WORK OR EARN MONEY - this would be a NO as long as you did not earn any money. Calling clients with no sales as a self employed individual would be a NO since this work did not result in any income for that week. (If, for example, you called a client which then lead to a contract signing which included the payment of a retainer fee to your business, that would be a YES you did earn money for the week.) Hope that helps!

Hi Ginny, Thank you so much for helping us amid pandemic. I am self-employed & W2. I receive a letter I qualify for PUA. I am working on Certify for Benefits for the week from 3/22 to 3/28 (I did not work until 4/3). But the W2 paycheck stub is for the period from March 19 to April 18. Your video states that only the hours that we actually work will count as money earned for W2, not when we actually receive pay. In that case, should I put down "NO" when EDD asks if I earn any money during the Certify week?

The EDD is not requiring certification through May 9th (though you may be asked to certify for those weeks later on) due to some errors in their online system. This notice can be viewed on the login screen for UI ONLINE.
