No, but it is also not to their advantage to do so. Unemployment insurance covers the cost of the paid money so it costs the company nothing extra. The penalty for lying on a Government document is heavy. They would be ahead to allow the collection of benefits.

Additional information:

The "unemployment insurance" is the taxes the state collect from businesses to compensate workers the business laid off. There could be penalties, fines, and other actions taken by the state if the lies were found out. The state checks out everyone's responses to allegations, etc. and from what ever source they deem necessary.

If you claim unemployment and work too will you have to repay or be penalise for future claims?

If you: 1) Lie about your employment status so that the UI agency believes you are completely unemployed; OR 2) Notify the UI agency that you are working freelance/part time but do not properly report all wages earned while collecting unemployment, then you are committing a crime (unemployment benefits fraud). Depending on what state you live in, you may: * have to repay benefits * be permanently or temporarily (years) disqualified from receiving unemployment benefits in the future * be fined * be arrested and jailed If you have made a mistake, contact your unemployment agency now to begin resolving the situation before it gets any worse.
