“As of Monday, Aug. 15, the Employment Security Department reports the following WA Cares exemption numbers:

  • Total opt-out requests submitted: 478,781
  • Total opt-out requests processed: 478,681
  • Total opt-out requests approved: 475,072
  • Applications processed as a percentage of total: 99.98%”

Looks like a slam dunk to get your opt out request approved.
