Florida Department of Economic Opportunity confirmed Tuesday it will waive the work search and work registration requirements through May and the waiting week requirement through June 26, among other updates to Florida unemployment.
MORE: DEO Emergency Order 21-015
UNEMPLOYMENT UPDATE: @FLDEO has extended the waivers for work search and work registration until May 29.
But it’s likely the last time.
After then, you must register and enter job searches into the system to qualify for benefits. #FloridaUnemployment @winknews pic.twitter.com/eyJDPoPrHh

According to the DEO press release:
- When the waiver expires, claimants must submit work searches for every week of state or federal benefits requested. Additionally, new claimants who file after the expiration of the waiver must complete the work registration through Employ Florida
- An accurate work search record may include, but is not limited to, registering for work and reemployment services with a local CareerSource Center, completing a job application in person or online, mailing a job application or resume, making in-person visits with potential employers, interviewing with potential employers, or registering for work with employment or placement agencies to name a few
- The Department encourages claimants to continue searching for work regardless of the waiver extension
