Kentucky leaders rolled out a new schedule for those applying for unemployment insurance benefits on Friday.
There has been a large increase in claims since new operating restrictions were placed on bars, restaurants, gyms, spas and salons.
The schedule of what day you can file a claim goes by the first letter in your last name.
Those whose last names begin with A-D Sunday, March 22; E-H Monday, March 23; I-L Tuesday, March 24; M-P Wednesday, March 25; Q-U Thursday, March 26 and V-Z Friday, March 27.
Anyone who missed the day that corresponds with their name can file the Friday, March 27.
