You need an address to get unemployment, so if you are homeless how can you provide an address?Unemployed means actively looking for a job but has not been hired. Homeless should not be able to collect unemployment unless if they are actively looking
NO... if you are not looking for work you cannot collect
Normally, to collect unemployment benefits, the person receiving them must be both able to work and actively looking for work. If they're unable to work due to being sick, they shouldn't be getting unemployment in the first place; they might get disability benefits, but that's not the same thing. You can never collect someone else's unemployment benefits, unless you're talking about physically walking to the mailbox and picking it up for them, which would be okay provided that they specifically authorized you to do this.
i am moving to PA, and will be looking for work, can i collect during this period?
Receiving unemployment is for people who lose their job through no fault of their own. When you file for unemployment you will be asked the reason that you are no longer employed. When you state it was for attendance, then you will need to go through their adjudication process. You will be scheduled for an interview with an adjudicator and they will ask you for your side of the story. They will also contact the employer and ask them the same questions. It is very important to be truthful as the employer generally has all of the paperwork to back everything up. The thing that they are looking for is what occurred the day that you were terminated. For example: If you had three write ups for attendance and you were late the day that you were fired and knew what their expectations were, then you will not qualify for unemployment. However, if you were previously written up for attendance and the last day you called the employer because you were sick and had a Doctors' note, then you would probably qualify if you could provide them with the note because being sick is not considered misconduct.
As long as you qualify for unemployment, and are looking for work, and are able to accept a job offer, you can collect unemployment. If you're not looking for a job, or your class schedule won't allow you to take a job, then you can't collect unemployment. The employment office will check your class schedule to make sure you are able to accept a job if offered one.
In order to collect unemployment there are several requirements that must be met. You must prove that you are actively looking for a job and that you currently do not currently have a job.
It depends on what they are looking for. In most cases they are looking at your employment history to validate that you have worked when and where you stated.
Well by asking your employer to "say you are fired" you are not only lying but also disqualifying yourself from unemployment benefits because being fired from your job is a bar to collecting unemployment. To qualify for unemployment insurance benefits, a worker must:* Have worked a certain number of weeks during the year* Have earned a certain amount of money in the past year* Be actively looking for work* Be unemployed through no fault of his ownQuitting without a valid reason or getting fired do not meet the above qualiications1.)http://www.legalmatch.com/law-library/article/unemployment-insurance-lawyers.html
The increase in duration of unemployment is mainly due to the fact of jobs not being available. If 5 workers are applying for every available job, unemployment continues until the number of jobs can match the number of applicants. Some people receiving benefits may choose to collect instead of working, but even they are required to continue looking for full time employment. The benefits merely help the searchers survive until they find employment.
Sure you can as long as you fill out work sheets to show your looking for a job
In order to be eligible for unemployment you need to have been released from your job at no fault of your own. Your company moving out of the state would qualify in that category and provided that you meet the other requirements you should be eligible to collect unemployment while you are actively looking for work.
