![Additional-Unemployment-Payments-50-States](https://img.money.com/2020/09/shutterstock_editorial_10712813c.jpg)

Americans waited in vain this summer for a second round of stimulus checks, and unemployed workers saw their benefits shrink when the extra $600 in their weekly checks ended at the end of July. Now, a program designed to make up for that loss has depleted its funding earlier than anticipated.

The extra $600 per week unemployment payments was part of the [CARES Act](https://money.com/coronavirus-relief-bill-checks-small-businesses/), and after Congress allowed it to expire at the end of July, President Donald Trump issued an executive order that allowed the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to step in and provide $44 billion in Lost Wages Assistance. That help was intended to cover an additional $300 per week boost to unemployment for the weeks ending on August 1, August 8 and August 15 at minimum. After that, states were told they could apply for additional payments through the end of the year as long as funding remained. Now, FEMA has confirmed that states will only be able to apply for funding covering [three additional weeks](https://www.fema.gov/disasters/coronavirus/governments/supplemental-payments-lost-wages-guidelines) (for six in total) through September 5. Once states are approved for all six weeks, their pool of money is depleted; states that have only applied for 3 to 5 weeks of funding may still apply for more until they reach six weeks.

States have begun to pay out Lost Wages Assistance at their own pace. Many states have already applied for all six weeks, but may not have finished sending out the payments yet. Other states have finished sending out payments already. (People who were unemployed in August will be able to receive funds retroactively even if their claim is still being processed. Those laid off after Sept. 5 are not eligible for Lost Wage Assistance.)
