    Residents who have their checks directly deposited into their bank accounts normally can access the funds on Fridays.

    But due to a programing error that occurred during a recent software upgrade to the state treasury department’s computer system, the money won’t be available until Monday.

    The delay affects about 27,000 people, officials said, adding it was the first time that such an error has occurred and that the problem was quickly corrected.

    About 490,000 people are currently collecting unemployment benefits in New Jersey.

    Lexus? wat about the basic, Lechem oni the matzo? it costs by far much more than the lechem ashirus the bread. regular Pesach shopping is ridiculously priced. This is the time of year wen distributers and store owners take advantage of us and rake the prices up. how had and unthoughtful. For this reason i don’t shop in one place i buy in 25 different stores whoever has the cheaper stuff.
