If you live in a state with higher unemployment rates than the norm, there are extensions to the unemployment benefits one normally gets, and on the same basis. Otherwise, check with your state's Human Resources equivalent for things like Medicaid (for health), food stamps, etc. within each state, workers comp (if you were injured on the job), training (under some approved programs), etc. There was also the Stimulus Bill, and job extension bill signed into law 11/6/09.

Do you claim unemployment in the state of the company or your residency?

The state you perform your work in is the "liable state", the state that pays your unemployment benefits. No matter whether you live in the state you work in, or even if the company's headquarters are in another, you get your benefits from where you work.


If you collect unemployment does it reduce your Social Security benefits for the future?

No, not technically. Social Security is technically considered 'insurance', as are unemployment benefits.Unemployment benefits are regulated and provided by your state of residence, while Social Security benefits are under the control of the federal government.The monies you receive for unemployment, however, are generally not taxed, so you are not paying INTO the Social Security system, as you are when you have paid employment. (I have noticed recently, however, that some states give UE recipients the option of having taxes withheld or not. If one does NOT have the taxes withheld will then have to pay them at the end of the year, per their tax return.)Another answer:NOT receiving any unemployment benefits would mean that during the time that they calculate your SS entitlements your average income would be reduced by the zero income in the period you were not paying your SS taxes because of your unemployment. Therefore, any amount you receive from unemployment is a plus even if it only counted as immediate income and not credited to your SS account. So your averages are not reduced by receiving unemployment compensation.CLARIFICATION:Just to clarify. Since Social Security calculates your benefit based on the 35 best years of your working years, if you have a long period of unemployment this could reduce your average wages, and thus potentially reduce your benefits. If you exhausted unemployment benefits and had any "zero income years" that could reduce your average wages even more, and thus the basis for you Soc Sec benefits. However if you had 35 working years total by the time you retire you would be OK since the calculation is based on your "35 best years"


Can you collect unemployment benefits while you are on Social Security for widows?

You can generally still collect unemployment while collecting social security, unless it is social security disability...even then you still might be able to. I worked for the Unemployment Office & just an FYI, they do not know if you are on social security and are unable to check, so if you do not say anything, they will never know.


Are you eligible to receive unemployment if asked you to take 3 wee ks vacation without pay?

Vacation implies that you still have a job. So, you would not receive unemployment benefits. And, even if you were to get benefits, I'm sure you wouldn't have a job to go back to afterwards.

Can you collect unemployment benefits in California if you go out on strike?

According to the Employment Development Department, you are only eligible for unemployment if you are unemployed "through no fault of your own." Being on strike is considered a "fault of your own" in most cases even if you personally voted against the strike. However, you should file for unemployment benefits - or contact the unemployment agency - anyway as they will review each case individually. There is no downside to filing unemployment (do know that they will notify your employer) and the worst that can happen is that they will say "no"!
