UPDATE: When you go to file your biweekly claim, the claim weeks available may go back to September. You will have to go through each biweekly claim (select "no" to do you wish to file and "working" for these past few months.) After each biweekly claim you must log out and log back in to file the next set of weeks. When you get to the biweekly claim you wish to file for- If it asks your first day you worked= enter the day you started back to work after the 1st layoff. If you were not laid off- select the earliest date it will allow (I believe it only goes back to 2019)
