Colorado Jumpstart: Unemployed Coloradans Who Return to Work Could Receive an Incentive

The Colorado Jumpstart program is being offered to Colorado unemployment recipients who return to full-time work between May 16 and June 26, 2021.  Eligible claimants who return to work between May 16 and May 29, 2021 can receive a Colorado Jumpstart Bonus of $1,600. Eligible claimants who return to work between May 30 and June 26, 2021 can receive a Colorado Jumpstart Bonus of $1,200. The Colorado Jumpstart Bonus is taxable and will be taxed at the percentage a claimant has previously selected.

During each weekly certification within MyUI+, Colorado unemployment claimants are asked, “Have you returned to work during this reporting period?” Eligible claimants who answer “Yes” to this question will be offered the opportunity to opt into the Colorado Jumpstart program. 

Note: The option to opt in to the Colorado Jumpstart program will only be presented to eligible claimants within the online MyUI+ system. Those certifying by phone using CUBLine will not be presented with this option. If you do not have internet access to opt in using MyUI+ but would like to participate in Colorado Jumpstart, please contact us at 303-536-5615, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
