I was acting about this

I was acting about this program a few months ago, and I was ed told I wasn't eligible to for it. I was shocked and disappointed because the above requirement fits what I'm going through right now being Unemployed over a year now. I wondered if things has changed in these past few months to be able to get into the program?
