Non-seasonally-adjusted data are used throughout. Regular state UI continued claims are for the week ending June 27; regular state UI initial claims are for the week ending July 4. PUA continued claims are for the week ending June 20; PUA initial claims are for the weeks ending June 27 and July 4. “Other programs” are continued claims in other programs for the week ending June 20. Initial claims are in the first round of processing. Continued claims have made it through at least the first round of processing. Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) is the federal program for workers who are out of work because of the virus but who are not eligible for regular state unemployment insurance (UI) benefits (e.g., the self-employed). “Other programs” includes PEUC, STC, and others; a full list can be found in the bottom panel of the table on page 4 at this link: https://www.dol.gov/ui/data.pdf. Continued claims for PUA and UI should be nonoverlapping, and initial claims for PUA and UI should also be nonoverlapping (I say “should” because that is how DOL has directed agencies to report them—but some states may be misreporting). Some states may be including some back weeks in their continuing claims reports.
