Sen. Ron Latz (SD49) Update: April 6, 2020

Capitol Update: COVID-19 Unemployment Insurance Information

Good afternoon,

Included in this April 6 Capitol Update, you will find information from the Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED) on Unemployment Insurance (UI). Given the unprecedented number of new applicants, several weeks ago DEED made the difficult decision to alter their phone schedule to prioritize application calls and password reset calls. That meant that some people who needed to talk with DEED had to wait. However, this week, DEED will resume taking calls from a broader set of customers, including those who have questions about their account or payment status.

Below is a table that provides the best time to call DEED’s customer service line and the relevant contact information for doing so.
