Separate from UI and PPP? Any impact on those?
Not much on the subject but the application asks about other grants/loans received (See page 8

Regarding PPP/EIDL:Here's the section related to this from the FAQ:
My business applied for and/or received COVID-19 disaster assistance from the Small Business Administration. Is the same business eligible for a Grant?
- Your business may still be eligible for a Grant. During the application process, you will be asked to provide details on any COVID-19 Disaster assistance received by your business to determine eligibility.
- The NJEDA cannot provide disaster assistance for the same purpose, as this is considered a Duplication of Benefits under federal law, and because your business would no longer have a need for the grant fund for that purpose.
- The business must have this information available. All applicants will need to complete a Duplication of Benefits affidavit with information of other COVID-19 disaster assistance, and details of their application for other such assistance will be needed.
Based on this it looks like if you use it for a different purpose or perhaps different dates, you should be eligible.
Regarding UI:Obviously if you use the funds for payroll it might disqualify you from benefits for that week if you exceed your PWBR.
