sorry, no, the representative said if i used all the PEUC funds and qualified for PUA that my PUA amount would be that of my original unemployment claim. and that there was nothing you could do amount how the PEUC claim randomly attaches to any unemployment claim. however there are various reports on this forum that make me think thats not true.

I'm confused

>i am worried about being accused of fraud if i do

You are worried about being accused of fraud by doing the thing that the ESD rep told you to do?

>PEUC claim, its just way way way less money than my PUA claim would be

But I thought you said:

>>And that if I was on PUA, I would be eligible for my original amount.

i am worried about being accused of fraud if i do that since i have an open PEUC claim, its just way way way less money than my PUA claim would be.

Restart and continue to file under your Pua. Because (¥)

Or, you'll have to call the claim center to do a totally brand new initial claim filing for UI 

Under Known Issues, in The Archive, there is something like "End of Eb, Apply for a new UI" that addresses this but

(¥) this is the first time one of our users is reporting that somebody from ESD recommendation is to actually restart and claim under the Pua instead of making a new claim

of course, at the current moment i am not not sure if there is anything i can do though. I have not found any information on the ability to change it.

Here is a [post](https://www.reddit.com/r/UnemploymentWA/comments/laejcn/will_i_get_peuc_automatically/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share) from yesterday with the identical thing, and in it I link a previous thread with the same issue with the user who had some insight

The person to whom I linked the first post yesterday has not responded to that post and has never replied about if there was any update or not, neither has the original helper so this time around I'm going to have to ask you, if you could do me the favor of letting me know what it is that gets rehashed and how to resolve it that I can put it in the archives so we don't have this issue come back each time

When I restarted my PEUC claim it attached to an older unemployment claim from years ago.  I am now getting less than half of what I was getting. When I called, she said that a PEUC claim can randomly attach to any old unemployment claim and they can not control or change it. And that if I was on PUA, I would be eligible for my original amount. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this right? 

When I originally switched it on, a different person said that it was wrong and she would fix it to create a new account? I am scared to start filing claims and mess something up.

 I already started filing PUA when my original PEUC claim ended before I understood I was suppose to wait for the PEUC. And that messed up my claim. And got my Identify adjudicated. 

any help would be appreciated

sorry if this is in the archives i couldn't find it

PEUC benefits renewed older claim with lower weekly amount
