This week states will begin to distribute federal aid as part of the $2.3 trillion package signed by the President. Individuals who have lost their jobs will receive an extra $600 each week. While it will take several weeks for this money to be distributed across the country, New York residents will begin seeing the extra benefits this week. The rescue package also includes expanded benefits to ensure that part-time workers qualify for aid.
