The employer pays its unemployment taxes to the state the employer is located in. You might file your claim with the state you live in, but your state would then process the claim through the "liable state".

No. You can only collect from the state that your employer paid his unemployment taxes to, the "liable" state.
They come from the state. Your employer pays unemployment taxes to the state and the federal governments.
He's not. The employer is the one who pays the state unemployment taxes.
The taxes paid to the state by the business (for the purpose of the state paying unemployment claims) through their payroll taxes are determined by the state collecting them.
The employer does not pay to the former employee. The employer pays unemployment taxes to the state he does business in, and the state, in turn, pays the benefits to the unemployed worker. If the employer has a large enough labor turn over, the state will raise his tax percentage payable accordingly.
The state collects funds through the employer's payroll taxes.
It isn't. Unemployment benefits are paid by the state which collects it from the employer through the employer's payroll taxes. Employees in all 50 states do not pay into the unemployment system.
The employer pays the state through payroll taxes (or directly) and the benefits to the claimant is income taxable.
Unless there is an agreement between the state and the employer, the state pays unemployment compensation and each state sets its own minimum and maximum amounts payable to the claimant. What the employer DOES pay is a payroll (unemployment) tax to the state that covers unemployment and is based on the employer's payroll, turnover rate of employees, etc.
No. You can only collect from the "liable state" which the employer pays unemployment taxes to, which in your case is California.
Under the Interstate Unemployment Agreement provisions you could file in either, but preferably in New York since it is the "liable state" which collected the unemployment taxes from your employer.
You would file in Rhode Island, the "liable state", because it is the one who collected unemployment taxes from your employer.
