DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
Revised Schedule of Remuneration for the Unemployment
Compensation for Ex-Servicemembers (UCX) Program That Reflects the
Military Pay Increase Effective
January 1, 2026.
AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration, U.S. Department of
Labor.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Each year, the Department of Defense issues a Schedule of
Remuneration used by states for UCX purposes. States use the schedule
to determine Federal military wages for UCX ``first claims'' only when
the Federal Claims Control Center (FCCC) responds to a request for
information indicating that there is no Department of Labor copy of the
Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, commonly known DD
Form 214 (DD214) for an individual under the social security number
provided. A response from the FCCC that indicates ``no DD214 on file''
will prompt the state to start the affidavit process and to use the
attached schedule to calculate the Federal military wages for an
unemployment insurance or UCX monetary determination.
The schedule applies to UCX ``first claims'' filed beginning with
the first day of the first week that begins on or after January 1,
2026, pursuant to the UCX program regulations (see 20 CFR 614.12(c)).
States must continue to use the 2025 schedule (or other appropriate
schedule) for UCX ``first claims'' filed before the effective date of
the revised schedule. Below is the 2026 Federal Schedule of
Remuneration recently released by the Department of Defense.
