DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training
Administration
Notice of a Change in Status of the
Extended Benefit (EB) Program for the
Virgin Islands
Employment and Training
Administration, Labor.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
This notice announces a
change in benefit payment status under
the EB program for the Virgin Islands.
The following change has occurred
since the publication of the last notice
regarding the Virgin Islands’ EB status:
• The Virgin Islands’ 13-week insured
unemployment rate (IUR) for the week
ending December 02, 2017 was 5.68
percent which exceeds 120 percent of
the corresponding rate in the prior year.
This caused Virgin Islands to be
triggered ‘‘on’’ to an EB period that
began December 17, 2017. The State will
remain in an EB period for a minimum
of 13 weeks.
The trigger notice covering state
eligibility for the EB program can be
found at: https://oui.doleta.gov/
unemploy/claims_arch.asp.
SUMMARY:
Information for Claimants
The duration of benefits payable in
the EB program, and the terms and
conditions on which they are payable,
are governed by the Federal-State
Extended Unemployment Compensation
Act of 1970, as amended, and the
operating instructions issued to the
states by the U.S. Department of Labor.
In the case of a state beginning an EB
period, the State Workforce Agency will
furnish a written notice of potential
entitlement to each individual who has
exhausted all rights to regular benefits
and is potentially eligible for EB (20
CFR 615.13 (c) (1)).
Persons who believe they may be
entitled to EB, or who wish to inquire
about their rights under the program,
should contact their State Workforce
Agency.

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
ACTION:
4517
Notice.
Each year, the Department of
Defense issues a Schedule of
Remuneration that may be used by
states, as needed, for UCX purposes.
States must use the schedule to
determine Federal military wages for
UCX ‘‘first claims’’ only when the
Federal Claims Control Center (FCCC)
responds to a request for information
indicating that there is no Copy 5 of the
Certificate of Release or Discharge from
Active Duty (DD Form 214) for an
individual under the social security
number provided. A response from the
FCCC that indicates ‘‘no DD214 on file’’
will prompt the state to start the
affidavit process and to use the attached
schedule to calculate the Federal
military wages for an unemployment
insurance or UCX monetary
determination.
The schedule applies to UCX ‘‘first
claims’’ filed beginning with the first
day of the first week that begins on or
after January 1, 2018, pursuant to the
UCX program regulations (see 20 CFR
614.12(c)). States must continue to use
the 2017 schedule (or other appropriate
schedule) for UCX ‘‘first claims’’ filed
before the effective date of the revised
schedule.
