How long can one get unemployment for in PA? I know a guy who is getting nonstop unemployment with extension after extension. I swear it is about to hit the year mark¦..he isnt making an effort to find work or a job, and he brags about how much money he gets just for waking up and hanging out with his friends. He has no wife, no rent, and no kids to take care of.

So in PA, how long do they give unemployment for? The way it is going with this guys extensions, it seems like it is permanent.

PA only gives 26 weeks, but there are Federal Tiers (4 of them) after that. The following link, although from the CA website, explains the system clearly: http://www.edd.ca.gov/Unemployment/Feder¦

Please note, currently, the unemployed are no longer eligible to move onto new Tiers once their current Tier expires. There is legislation pending in Congress to allow them to move onto new Tiers, but it has not yet passed.
