Until stimulus passes the house, until more clarity, we should *not* be listing our 1099 clients as "employers", as it will likely trigger a Tax Audit because no payroll taxes were withheld from your income or paid by the employer and the IRS will want to look into that.
The day to apply un-employement depends on last name:
"Last names starting w/ A-F, file on Monday. Last names starting with G-N, file on Tuesday. Last names starting with O-Z, file on Wednesday. (...) all claims are effective on the Monday of the week in which they are filed."
