Unless the Senate acts to extend.

“The (Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation) $600 can be paid for weeks ending no later than the week ending prior to Friday, July 31, 2020. For all states except (New York), that is Saturday, July 25th. New York's end date is Sunday, July 26th.”

Why the mix-up? It all comes down to the details, as USA Today explains. The Cares Act says these supplemental benefits will end “on or before July 31.” However, most states pay unemployment benefits on a weekly or bi-weekly basis ending on a Saturday or Sunday. Therefore, unemployment benefits will end earlier than expected on the last Saturday or Sunday of July.
