Best Answer

Yes, if you had previous employers that did pay their payroll taxes. The states allow certain classes of employers from paying into the system by employing "independent contractors" or commission-only people. There's a crackdown now underway against employers who are re-classifying their workers to avoid compliance.

If you are fired from your job and you legally and fairly begin to draw unemployment can that employer call you at home and demand that you get off unemployment?

No, the employer cannot call you at home to demand that you get off unemployment. When you begin drawing unemployment, the employer does not pay directly - there is a fund in which employer deposits are being placed and that fund is where the unemployment payment comes out - nothing to do with your ex-employer. If your ex-employer is harassing you; however, you should call the police and BBB.


Is it illegal if a Georgia employer did not pay unemployment insurance and if so what can be done about it?

Some employers are exempt or under certain conditions are exempt from having to pay employment taxes. See the Related Link below under "How do I know I have to pay unemployment tax" to see the conditions/type of work that is exempt. If your employer does not fall in these categories, you should notify the unemployment securities office for them to check him out. Another section says all employers are to report any new hires to the state.

Can you still draw unemployment if you get fired for threat someone?

Unemployment Insurance is for people who lose their jobs through no fault of their own. Due to the reason of your termination you will be scheduled for an adjudication interview where the employer and yourself will be contacted. If you threaten someone, you will be denied employment because it is something that the employer does not have the right to expect during your employment.
