today I'm gonna show you how to file for
[2]
unemployment benefits great to be with
[4]
you guys I am the YouTube deal guy Matt
[5]
granite all of the information I share
[7]
is on Matt's daily deals.com and I'm I'm
[10]
here to help we're all in the same boat
[12]
the really interesting unique and sad
[14]
thing about the situation is we're all
[16]
in it together it doesn't matter what
[18]
your economic bracket is it doesn't
[19]
matter what your background is level of
[21]
degrees you have anyone from any walk of
[23]
life right now is either almost
[25]
unemployed unemployed or at least unsure
[29]
of where they stand and if we do have
[31]
work going on like for example I'm a
[33]
YouTube creator I can still do this as
[34]
one of my ways to possibly earn a living
[37]
my main source of livelihood right now
[39]
is completely cut off I host a show in
[41]
New York City I live in Toronto the
[43]
border is closed I can't host my show
[45]
the studios that I work for a shutdown
[47]
and all of my work contracts are
[49]
suspended so my income is virtually
[51]
non-existent and I am on my level of
[54]
unemployment where I live which is
[56]
called CRB gone through the process I'm
[58]
here to help you guys with yours I
[60]
recently did a video called when will I
[61]
get my stimulus check if you guys are
[63]
trying to apply for that I've got a
[65]
whole process outlined in detail to
[67]
assist you but first things first if you
[69]
are looking to get your unemployment
[70]
questions answer I've done a full
[72]
breakdown on Matt's daily deals.com to
[74]
answer your unemployment questions so
[77]
for example if you're wondering if you
[79]
are unemployed due to one of these three
[81]
criteria an employer temporarily ceasing
[83]
operations if you are of course forced
[86]
to self isolate or if you've had to
[88]
leave work due to an exposure to care
[90]
for a family member that's there too and
[92]
before I show you the two resources that
[93]
I would use and then a couple of tricks
[95]
and tips to get through this process if
[97]
you are employed one through no fault of
[99]
your own which is typically due to a
[101]
lack of available work to you meet your
[103]
work and wage requirements which vary
[104]
state by state or three you must meet
[108]
the additional requirements in your
[109]
state which can be found on your state's
[111]
unemployment website you are eligible
[113]
for these benefits which typically lasts
[116]
for a maximum of 23 weeks so I'm going
[118]
to show you guys how to apply right now
[121]
one resource that is tremendous before I
[123]
show you specifically where you might
[125]
want to go to help seek employment the
[127]
benefit website on your screen right now
[129]
which I've linked through on Matt's
[130]
daily deals.com will show you
[133]
by state breakdowns of what you qualify
[136]
for where and when you qualify and get a
[139]
lot of those questions answered so it's
[141]
a step-by-step process shows you
[143]
specifically what number to call where
[145]
you file your unemployment claim there
[148]
are ways to file your unemployment
[150]
claims in person I remember a couple of
[152]
weeks ago when the website crashed I
[155]
think it was Florida or at least in one
[156]
community there's just hours and hours
[158]
of people all lined up in their cars to
[160]
go apply in person at the time I'm
[162]
uploading this video the system seems to
[164]
be working a lot better online of course
[166]
that could change in an instant but
[167]
assuming it doesn't these will be the
[169]
resources the phone numbers and
[171]
everything you need to apply everything
[173]
is on your screen and you can see you
[174]
click search right here the the website
[177]
and the numbers change state by state I
[180]
am unemployed right now in New York
[183]
State so a lot of the information that
[184]
I've needed to use is on the New York
[187]
State Department of Labor website with
[189]
that being said to even get to this
[192]
website and to get all of those
[193]
resources I need the first website which
[196]
you guys can see on your screen which is
[197]
linked to on Matt's daily deals.com is
[199]
the top unemployment benefits finder and
[202]
then of course that blog where I explain
[204]
how long your unemployment will last and
[206]
sort of how to figure out the whole
[207]
process is all detailed on my website I
[209]
don't wanna bore you with reading every
[212]
detail right here but that's where it is
[214]
for those of you that are looking for
[216]
top search engines to try and find jobs
[219]
on top of the filing that we all need to
[222]
do I want to show you two tricks that I
[224]
think are worth your while the first job
[226]
search engine and of course none of
[227]
these companies are paying me to talk
[228]
about them I'm just telling you right
[230]
now I've had good luck using the indeed
[234]
job search service which has been around
[235]
a while there's a lot of great free
[237]
searches that you can add especially for
[239]
work from home jobs right now I've seen
[241]
a lot of updates for employment from
[244]
home which i think is tremendous and
[245]
then I've never been a huge fan of job
[248]
opportunities on LinkedIn I feel like
[250]
it's just oversaturated with people all
[252]
trying to do the same thing for the same
[255]
few job listings but one thing that is
[257]
worth it on their Premium Membership if
[259]
you have a little bit of disposable cash
[261]
for a month and you want to upgrade your
[262]
membership there is a
[265]
section on your profile and this is my
[267]
profile right here where you can
[268]
actually change your profile to open to
[270]
job opportunities and you can make your
[272]
job search visible only to recruiters or
[276]
visible to anyone and if you switch your
[279]
profile over to a public view and you're
[282]
not embarrassed by the fact that you are
[283]
out of work or need employment there are
[285]
a lot of searches that are conducted on
[287]
LinkedIn and whether it's white collar
[289]
blue collar self-employed individuals
[293]
any type of job right now might have an
[296]
at home component that you could
[298]
potentially apply for and I don't think
[300]
maybe you guys disagree but I'm not
[302]
beyond any work right like there's
[303]
nothing that I won't do to help provide
[305]
for my family so whether you're applying
[307]
for the benefits are looking for a job
[308]
that would be my breakdown everything
[310]
you need is on Matt's daily deals.com
[311]
and if you are looking again for how to
[314]
apply for the stimulus check and when
[316]
you will get the stimulus check and all
[317]
of those questions I did that as part of
[318]
another video feel free to subscribe if
[320]
you like the content you saw give me a
[322]
thumbs up and I found on the last video
[324]
a lot of people that were unemployed or
[326]
looking for work we're helping other
[328]
people in the comment section so if you
[330]
are on Social Security or disability and
[332]
you have other insight that you want to
[335]
interject please leave a comment you
[337]

[338]
you're even more helpful than I was on
[340]
the last video and I'm learning from you
[341]
so it's a it's a good reciprocal
[344]
relationship and of course we're all in
[345]
