Fourteen Hours Delay with respect to Nevada Unemployment Benefits

The unemployment rate of Nevada has been a constant worry because of its continuous soaring. Right now, it stands at 13.7%. If the reports are to be believed, then soon the rate may reach 14.2%,

The surprising thing has been that in spite of Nevada having such a high unemployment rate, there have been jobs coming up in Las Vegas with many of them competing for them. The gaming industry being the main source of employment has shown steady increase in terms of employment. The construction and the government jobs are cut continuously. The local government has slashed over 5% of the jobs that they once offered, and that number continues to grow.

There was a 14-hours delay with respect to Nevada Unemployment Benefits. The deposits of unemployment claims resumed last week to about 100,000 jobless people who use the states debit card claims system.

The delay was due to a technical glitch in the system of the state. ACS began working on the problem as soon as it occurred and made the payment of benefits to Nevada claimants its number one priority,” Cynthia Jones, DETR deputy director said.

She said ASC will waive any fees that resulted from the technical issue, such as those that may have been incurred for repeated balance inquiries, from 12:01 a.m. Wednesday, through the completion of processing of the delayed deposits Wednesday night.
