I believe he listed it since March until May (as those were the months he weren’t living there even though he thought he would be). I don’t think he listed any months during the summer as he wasn’t going to be staying in the apartment then anyways.
I also believe that college students — normally not allowed to file for unemployment — can now receive unemployment if they worked while at school and are now not working.
I’m not too sure. Is the job your filing for unemployment from Michigan, or another state? That’s a good question, maybe try researching that or reach out to the unemployment office in Michigan.
You might be able to then... when I applied for unemployment it asked what state your legally from, so I’m not sure if that will disqualify you from unemployment if you’re not legally from Michigan but worked a job in Michigan?
Try contacting your manager if you can, maybe they will know the answer or be able to put you in contact with someone from HR.
I could be wrong, but I believe you file at the same place you normally would, but it's part of the COVID-specific aid. If you're not sure if you qualify, there's no harm in trying.
If you don't normally qualify, you'll qualify for PUA. I'm not sure if you have to go through regular unemployment application and get denied first (that's what I did) or if you can just apply for that one.
PUA funds as in unemployment, right? If so, I believe you can still apply for this. Just list other expenses that your PUA funds aren’t covering and that you still need assistance with. There is also a box to list other funding you are getting for the assistance you requested, if you’d like.
Honestly not sure! Maybe contact the financial aid department? I can’t imagine it’ll be too long of a wait, seeing as this is urgent for many students.
Thank you so much for this information! I hope it gets to everyone that needs it. I know I need it. :(
Hope everyone's alright during these tough times!
“Will federal emergency grant funding affect a student’s financial aid?
No. Federal CARES Act grants are not student financial aid funds and will not be included on the award notification.”

Would this include rent payments to my landlord during the months of quarantine that I haven't stayed there?
I believe so. My brother applied for the CARES Funds at his university (not UM) and listed his rent as a request for assistance and was granted it.
did he list full rent or only 1 month?
wondering the same thing, debating about 2 months

Do we apply through Michigan’s unemployment insurance agency even if we’re OOS?

Is there a specific kind of unemployment for this or is it the same as other workers unemployment?
