Generally, yes. Most states pay for a 26 week period in a 52 week benefit year. By reducing the amount you would receive each week by what you earn on a part time job will extend the total payment periods within that benefit year.
When you begin receiving an income while getting unemployment benefits, the state adjusts your benefits by a formula that reflects the difference between your pay and the benefits.

Not necessarily. It depends on the state you work in and how much your benefits are relative to the weekly earnings from the part time job. Check with your own state's local employment security office for clarification.

Can you collect unemployment if you are part time in Wisconsin?

Answer:Sometimes with a family, people are forced into part time work and are unable to make ends meet. Most states allow you to collect unemployment if working part time, under certain circumstances. Some may have you collect on a former employer if you are still in the benefit year and you had claimed unemployment before your present job. Much depends on the state you work in and their criteria. Contact your state unemployment office for clarification.
