If you are willing and able to work, and are seeking work, you essentially meet the requirements for many states as far as unemployment compensation is concerned. If you are not seeking work, or are prevented from working by something, then you do not qualify. As far as what you're doing with your time during the periods between making applications for jobs as required by your respective state is your business; and, if you have not accrued enough work-time in the past for the determining of a compensation amount for you, you will not have put in sufficient time in the workforce to qualify. These questions can be easily answered by the friendly folks down at your local employment office or workforce development cabinet. The final decision over your benefits comes from there; and, they usually are a little gratified when they can answer someone's questions who appreciates their time in doing so.

Generally speaking, no. Whether you quit to go to school or for any other reason that had nothing to do with job related problems (i.e., abuse, working conditions, prejudicial conduct agaisnt you, etc.), would not qualify you for unemploymeny benefits. If you did qualify for the above reasons, you'd still need to meet qualifications such as availablity, willing and able to go to work immediately and without school interfering with the job, etc.

You were terminated for attendance can you draw unemployment in North Carolina?

You should check with your local unemployment office; but in almost all cases, if you are terminated for wrong doing or quit your job, you cannot collect unemployment. Otherwise, people would just get a job and do something to get fired or quit, just to get the money from unemployment. You may want to check to see if your state is a fire at will state. That reduces your chance of collection unemployment dramatically.

Oregon would not be the "liable state" (responsible to pay unemployment) and whether she was eligible when she quit is up to the individual state. Some allow it, to follow the spouse, and others do not.
