Biden's COVID relief bill includes $400/week unemployment benefits until September. 

 

Normally, if you voluntarily quit a job, you are not eligible for unemployment benefits. However, a person can qualify for these benefits if they quit because they "fear' contracting COVID at their job.

 

I know that my job has an enhanced risk for contracting COVID.

 

So should I quit and earn 400/wk for the next six months — tax free.

 

Or continue earning 300/week that is taxed.

 

No one but myself would ever know if I "feared" contracting COVID at that job
