Unemployment applications earlier today in Hialeah, Florida. The city is distributing the printed unemployment forms to residents as people continue to have issues with access to the state of Florida’s unemployment website.
Tonight the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity announced a new website that they hope will better handle those looking for unemployment assistance, according to the Tampa Bay Times. They say this one is mobile-friendly. So far the response has been far more positive. For weeks, there have been complaints about the old site stalling. The URL to the new one is: FloridaJobs.org/RAApplication. If you get a chance to try it tonight, let me know how it goes so I can pass it along to other listeners. Source: [Tampa Bay Times]
