NY unemployment experts, please help, benefits expiring soon!

I live in NYC, and filed for NY unemployment benefits in March, and was accepted. It says I have 16 "Effective Days Remaining." From what I understand, in NY there are 4 effective days each week, so that should last until roughly 4 more weeks.

So my question is, is that it? It just ends? Any chance of an extension during the pandemic? Would it be automatic or would I have to do anything? Thanks in advance everyone.

1. I think the cares act extended it 3 months? 9 months total in OK.

3. So why does it say I have 16 "Effective Days Remaining?"

Will it reset once it hits zero?

2. Cares act extended it 13 weeks.

4. So do I have to do anything?

The site saying I have 16 "Effective Days Remaining" is confusing.

5. I think when u reach the end of the first 26 weeks the extension will kick in?

I was laid off in 2008 for a yr and thats how it worked in OK then. Maybe call and verify what will happen?
