<p>No it means whatever her current name is.</p>

<p>If they do not file one because they are not required by law to file one then check will not file. If they should be filing one you will get no aid unless they do file one.</p>

<p>A dislocated worker is
[quote]
In general, a person is considered a dislocated worker if he or she</p>

<pre><code>* is receiving unemployment benefits due to being laid off or losing a job and is unlikely to return to a previous occupation;

  • has been laid off or received a lay-off notice from their job;

  • was self-employed but is now unemployed due to economic conditions or natural disaster; or

  • is a displaced homemaker. A displaced homemaker is generally a person who: previously provided unpaid services to the family (e.g., a stay-at-home mom or dad), is no longer supported by the husband or wife, is unemployed or underemployed and is having trouble finding or upgrading employment.

<p>If a person quits work, generally they are not considered a dislocated worker even if, for example, the person is receiving unemployment benefits.
