Dear           ELISA M MORENO
Check your records! TWC has the wages below on file for you for the four quarters of your base
period. We use your base period wages to figure out whether you earned enough money to qualify for
unemployment insurance benefits and how much you could receive if you are eligible. After TWC looks
at whether you earned enough money to qualify, TWC looks at the reason you are no longer working to
decide whether you can receive bene·fits. Remember, even if you earned enough wages, TWC pays
benefits only if you meet the weekly requirements.

Please check the wage information carefully. If the employer name or the wage amount is incorrect, or
if an employer you worked for is missing, please contact a TWC Tele-Center immediately. More
information about correcting your wages is on the back of this form.

Based on the wages listed                        in the box below:
