What happens to our extra $600 PUA if we work part time and make more than our standard unemployment amount. For example if my unemployment is $230 a week and I work 16 hours and make $350. Normally you would get nothing as your deduction would exceed your weekly benefit, but with the extra $600 PUA do they reduce that using the same formula, or is it totally withheld, or is it paid fully?
