Louisiana Unemployment Extension - Extended Benefits (EB)
There is another type of unemployment extension called Federal-State Extended Duration (FED-ED), more commonly referred to as Extended Benefits (EB). You will only qualify for the EB Extended Benefits unemployment extension if you have used up all of your regular unemployment benefits and also used up all of your EUC08 unemployment extension.
If you qualify for the EB Extended Benefits unemployment extension you will receive additional benefits equal to 20 weeks or 80% of the maximum benefit amount on the original unemployment claim, whichever amount is less.

Louisiana CAN give an additional 20 weeks of EB benefits paid for by the federal government BUT HAVE NOT REINSTATED IT!!! Call the governors office, state representatives , and the office of unemployment and complain! I have contacted all of them.
