As I see it, I need to do the following:
- Apply for Unemployment Benefits
- Update resume & apply
- Apply for COBRA (continuation of medical insurance)
- Apply for hardship coverage: Home Mortgage
- 401K (current balance in excess of $5k)
Some Qs on the the above:
3. COBRA – till when is the coverage of current employer valid?
4. Home MTG – what exact category can I apply under?
5. Anything I should do with the 401K account? Internet research indicates best option (in short term) is to pay the additional administrative fees (covered previously by employer) till I get my next job
Also any advice on things I may not have considered but need to get ahead of, is truly appreciated.
TIA
