Can I keep getting unemployment while working in a different state?
I am going to tell you two things. First this happened to me I was getting NJ unemployment and got a job in Florida and NJ unemployment found out about it. This is a felony if you get caught. I know someone who worked in Florida and got Massachusetts unemployment and Massachusetts found out about it. Many years ago I was getting NV unemployment and worked in Florida. Nevada never found out. I found out why NV never found out. This is because every state either does there own unemployment claims or does claims for several states. NV even does claims for some states on the east coast but NV does not do Florida claims. So If California does claims for the state that you will be working in California will find out. Now I don't think there is a national data base for all states that shows when you are working I don't want to tell you for sure that there is not a data base like this out there because I don't know for sure but I really doubt there is. Also keep in Mind that I had what you call a dual claim where I had money left in NJ where I was getting money from unemployment and then I went to Florida to collect the rest of the money so for me it was like extended employment and I think that is why NJ found out about me working because NJ and Fl were communicating for this reason. My advice is that if CA finds out you are working and getting unemployment it is a felony with up to 5 years in Jail. so ask yourself is the money you are getting from unemployment worth the chance? Also if you do this first call unemployment for California(don't tell them who you are) Just tell them you are just asking a general question and ask them which states besides CA do they do claims for?
Claiming unemployment while working in NV ?
A friend of mine claimed 6 weeks worth of unemployment while working. Her earnings at her job were more than the earnings from unemployment. This is the state of Nevada. Now she is very worried that she can get into a lot of trouble. What can I tell her? What should she do? Is there anything she can do to make this right before it becomes legal? In other works prison or a huge fine? She's at least wanting to make things right. Even if she has to pay it back. What advice should I give her?
Can I still get unemployment if I have another job?
I currently work 2 jobs, but the place which is my main source of income will soon be closing. My other job is just a little bit of additional income. Can I still apply for unemployment benefits when my main job ends? How do I go about applying for this? I live in the state of Connecticut (CT) if this helps.
Can I collect unemployment if I am out of work due to having a baby? ?
I won't say that you won't be able to draw unemployment, but I'd say that your chances aren't that great. In order to draw unemployment, you have to be willing and ABLE to seek employment. While on maternity leave, you will be on medical leave, so you won't be able to actively seek employment. If you're not able, you can't draw. After the doctor releases you to go back to work (6 to 8 weeks afterwards), you will be able to draw unemployment, but I wouldn't think you'd be able to until after that time. The only other option you have is by seaking TEA through your local DHS office. It's a temporary assistance. Basically like welfare. It's nothing to be ashamed of. You've worked and paid your taxes...you deserve it. This will help get you over the hump until such time as you're released to go back to work. You may also qualify for food stamps. If short term disability isn't offered through your job, TEA and food stamps is your only option. But...don't listen to all of us. Be informed. Contact your local unemployment office and have them answer your questions. God bless you and yours...Always!
Can you collect unemployment in two different states?
It is not legal to collect separate checks from two separate states at the same time. If a person's claim in one state has expired, then the person may qualify for a new claim in another state. For example, I collected from New York in 2001 and from California in 2010. However, your question seems to involve claims that are too close chronologically. Generally, once you file a claim, you cannot file a claim until the week that is 52 weeks after the week when you last filed. (For example, if you filed a claim today, Thursday, July 21, 2011, you could not file another claim until Sunday, July 23, 2012.) It is also not legal to collect from one state while working full-time (even at a seasonal job) in another state. A person who collects while working, even in another state, must report all wages earned to the state paying the unemployment, and that state calculates whether to lower the benefit checks. If a person has worked in two states, there is a way to file an "interstate" claim based on wages from both states, but the person receives a single check and this does not seem to be what you wanted to know.
Can you receive unemployment if you haven't had a job in a few years?
I would say no, and here’s why. In most states, you need to have been laid off or terminated without cause (as opposed to being fired or quitting) in order to be eligible for unemployment benefits. If you quit due to an unsafe job environment or long-term harassment, you can often appeal an unemployment benefits denial (I have a friend who did this). But again, the ability to obtain benefits, the amount of those benefits, and the time you have to file for them, will vary from state to state.Also, remember that unemployment benefits are fully taxable. They don’t withhold any taxes from unemployment checks, so be prepared to face a pretty stiff tax bill the next year.
Are federal employees that are working without pay and with no guarantee of getting paid (not gainfully employed?) eligible for state unemployment benefits?
Not in most states .. Federal employees that are working with out pay are still employed and are not eligible for unemployment but may qualify for SNAPs or other state sponsored assistance programs but must pay the state back after the shutdown ends.Some states, my state does not, may grant unemployment for Federal employees that are furloughed as non essential although the Federal employees that verifies employment to the state are non essential and not working.
Same company, different states (NJ To GA). Worked at the NJ branch for 4 years before transferring and one month at new location before laid off. It was a continuous employment, no new hiring date. Which state to file unemployment?
File in the state that you are now residing in. They will contact the company get your earnings and decide which state will pay your benefits. Generally speaking you will collect unemployment from the state that you worked in the longest. For New Jersey you will receive about 60% of your average weekly paycheck, up to a maximum of $600 for a maximum of 26 weeks. Georgia’s maximum benefit amount is only $330 per week, and the maximum weeks you can collect is 14.
If someone has a bench warrant in one state, could that person be arrested in another state for that same bench warrant?
I have read almost all of these answers. I am originally from Indiana, and the state places a rider on all their misdemeanor warrants that it is enforcable only within state boundaries. Now, I seen almost all of the answers her are from people with law enforcment back grounds. Not to upset anyone but police officers do not spend the time and money attorneys do on an education. When there is a rider on the warrent it is placing a legal jurisdiction or enforcement on that warrent. And that warrent is then only a legal document in the boundaries of jurisdiction of that document. Outside of that it is worthless, nothing more than toilet paper. So it is my understanding that it you are out of jurisdiction of the warrent as stated on the warrent (which at the time the officer runs a check it is stated there it) and arrest you only on the basis of that warrant then they have commited a legal kidnapping and have falsely arrested you due to the fact the officer already knows the jurisdiction of the warrent and what the intent of the issueing court is on the extradition. So yes you should take care of the warrent as soon as you can, but understand that if you are checked and you are in fact outside the limits of the warrent. It is no longer a legal document and can not be enforced at any cost just like a city police officer had NO jurisdiction in another city that is not within his state. In fact if that police office from NV came to my state of Florida and tried to use his badge in a official capacity he would be arrested for impersonating an office. If the law is like that for the jurisdiction of a person what do you think they would be for a pirce of paper. And remember to alway demand (not ask) to see the warrent and to read it completely before you sign it. Some jails have been known to pass off the warrent as extradition papers just to get you to sign the warrant. Sorry to any law enforcement officer i may have upset.
