Townstar_SS's journey

I recently exhausted my Virginia unemployment benefits and I'm still looking for work. This process is quite new to me, and I'm unsure if I need to reapply for a new claim. I've been reading that a UI claim is valid for a year, but the monetary balance usually runs out after 26 weeks. I’ve been advised to check my financial determination for key dates and to keep certifying as instructed. It seems like I might need to file a new claim once my benefits are fully exhausted, but I want to confirm that with the VEC site or by calling them directly.
