Officials are saying about 1,400 West Virginians who are waiting on their unemployment benefit checks are going to have to wait a little longer.
Workforce WV says the problem started in November when Congress passed a bill extending unemployment compensation eligibility by 20 weeks.
West Virginia and several other states are updating computer systems to process the change, thus causing delays.
Mike Moore with Workforce West Virginia says the benefits should arrive within the next several weeks.
Some recipients say their benefits stopped in December.
