Sorry, but you can only collect unemployment benefits if you was hired by a company full time and the company laid you off for no reason. Temps are people who only works at temp agencies or recruiters. They never worked at a company and was never on their payroll so how can they collect. Temps are on-call and only will call the worker if they have work which is occasionally so not qualified.

How long must an employer pay unemployment benefits in Illlinois for a terminated eemployee?

The employer does not pay unemployment benefits. The employer pays unemployment insurance premiums to the State of lllinois. When the employee is terminated, the employee applies for unemployment benefits with the State of Illinois. The state determines if the employee is eligible for benefits and, if the employee is awarded benefits, those benefits are paid and monitored by the State of Illinois.


You were employed for 30 days at your last employer are you eligible for unemployment?

Unemployment benefits are governed by states, so it will depend on what state you worked in. I am not aware of any state that has a limitation on how long you needed to be working to obtain benefits. I would check with your state's department of labor or workforce development. In some larger states, you may have a department of unemployment, which would be where I would suggest too.

Can a retiree collect unemployment benefits if he has not been able to obtain new work after a year long search?

A retiree, by definition would not be eligible per se, but if looking for work, he would need to check with his own state's unemployment office for eligibility requirements such as base period, amount earned, reason for his non employment, etc. Every state has their own rules and laws on unemployment benefits.


Suppose your unemployment benefits do not cover your living expenses?

that's not uncommon. Unemployment benefits are intended to keep an unemployed individual afloat during their temporary time of unemployment. However, not all unemployment is created equal and the amount you receive depends on the state you live in, the amount you were paid before, and how long you worked there.

Can you collect unemployment benefits while you are on Social Security for widows?

You can generally still collect unemployment while collecting social security, unless it is social security disability...even then you still might be able to. I worked for the Unemployment Office & just an FYI, they do not know if you are on social security and are unable to check, so if you do not say anything, they will never know.
