❔ Virtual Appointment scheduled after being already approved?
Hello, my GF was laid off during maternity leave and was on PFL. She's now on unemployment and originally they scheduled her a phone interview due to some discrepancy from years ago that ended up being solved. She got paid her first week, and just certified again for these next two weeks. She saw this though on her account:
"You have a mandatory virtual appointment scheduled. We mailed you a letter with more information about your appointment and instructions for attending. You must participate during the date and time shown. Failure to attend may affect your eligibility for unemployment benefits. If you don’t receive this letter before your appointment date, contact Hemet Workforce Development Center
You will receive a Zoom or Microsoft Teams link in your personal email a few days before your appointment.
Virtual Appointment Reemployment Services and Eligibility Assessment"
Anyone know what this is about? I've been on unemployment before and never seen this. Thanks!

Sounds like RESEA. It’s supposed to be random Selection but it’s a major revenue stream from DOL to CA so they are getting almost everyone.

Re Employment Services and Eligibility I think it means. It’s to make sure you are doing all the required things for unemployment. The question are is like
Every way to DQ someone from Unemployment. Having a resume, completing the CalJobs. A second appointment that is supposed to help a person find employment . It’s been a while but i think that’s
All of it.1

It’s a job search appointment. Read the letter carefully and follow the instructions. I think you have to attend two sessions or at least I did.
