On May 25, 2020, I applied for the Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) program for independent contractors with the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO). My application faced numerous delays, and I received no help from the local Career Resource Center in Gainesville, even after sitting down with the director on three different occasions for 20 minutes each time over the course of numerous months. Now, Florida has informed me that it’s too late to claim the total $11,700 I was eligible for, which includes $600 per week and an additional $300 from March to October 2020. They haven’t processed my paperwork in five years and, of course, say I can’t recover these funds now.  They did not want to do the paperwork 5 or 4 or 3 or 2 or 1 year ago and they still do not want to do the paperwork!   Are there any lawyers who handle cases like this? If so, please contact me at Tim@FloridaDEOdidNotPay.com
