The Nevada Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation (DETR) announced a change in debit card providers on Tuesday.
The cards will change from Bank of America to the Way2Go Card Debit Mastercard.
Throughout the month of June, Unemployment Insurance (UI) claimants will begin receiving their new green Way2Go Card.
It is vital for claimants to activate their new card immediately, even if there is no funding yet on the card.
Claimants can expect correspondence via email, mail and their online claimant portal with more information regarding the debit card transition.
Benefit payments will not be deposited onto the new card until early July.
Claimants should continue to use their current card as they normal would until then.
Claimants should also continue filing their weekly claim as normal.
Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) claimants with direct deposit do not need to do anything and will see no change.
All active UI claimants will receive a new card.
