How do I know if I should self-attest to being eligible for unemployment insurance (or unemployment compensation) in my Georgia Access application?

Under the American Rescue Plan, a Georgia Access taxpayer and/or their spouse (if married, filing jointly) can qualify for enhanced financial assistance, including advance premium tax credits (APTC) and cost sharing reductions (CSR) through Georgia Access if they are eligible to receive unemployment insurance for at least one week in 2024. These individuals should self-attest to unemployment insurance eligibility in their Georgia Access application.

Please note: A household where only the dependent child is eligible for unemployment insurance, should not self-attest to eligibility for unemployment insurance, as this does not qualify the household the unemployment insurance benefit under the American Rescue Plan.
