Unemployed Californians are going to have to actively start looking for work next month if they want to keep getting benefits. The state EDD is reinstating the work search requirement on July 11th. The longtime state requirement was waived in March of 2020 at the start of the pandemic. Folks must, once again, show proof they are trying to find a job each week in order to maintain their benefit eligibility.
