JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ order to waive the work search requirement for unemployed Floridians expires April 24, and unless he decides to extend it again, people will love their benefits if they do not complete work searches before claiming weeks.
The work search requirement ensures claimants apply to at least five different jobs every week before claiming benefits.
Claimants are recommended to search for jobs on a website called Employ Florida, which connects with the Department for Economic Opportunity.
