You can file for unemployment if you got fired or laid off your job after working for six months. You can get pre-tax benefits or opt to have taxes taken out up front. You report any days you worked for the period of time (week). You will not get benefits for those days. the rest of the days they will pay you. But that will extend the benefits period. All benefits will have to be reported on your taxes.

Do you have to file if you collected unemployment benefits?
Anytime that you need unemployment benefits you have to refile. When you refile you will be advised if you are eligible for benefits. Sometimes you will reopen an existing claim if it is within the same base period that you were collecting in previously, in which case your unemployment amount will remain the same. However, if you have exhausted your previous benefits and not eligible to open an extension, then the unemployment office will use the new base period, and based on the work that you have completed, you may or may not qualify. File asap, because many states will not allow you to backdate your unemployment to when you first became unemployed. You can always file, but you may not qualify.
