Best Answer

Tennessee, not the federal government, pays the unemployment benefits and thus sets the terms for qualifying. There must be some aspect of your claim to cause this, because unemployment benefits normally follow the worker. It might have to do with why you left the job, because that alone would not qualify you. You need to contact Tennessee's employment security office for clarification of their actions.

If you have worked in Georgia an you live in TN how can you draw unemployment from both states?

You wish!! If you are on unemployment in Georgia, but now live in Tennessee, you would apply for unemployment in Tennessee. Your records would transfer and you would be paid in the state where you live.Another answer:You can only draw unemployment from the "liable state", Georgia in your case, because that is the state that your employer paid the unemployment taxes, through the payroll taxes, to. You might file with Tennessee, but they would only be helping you receive the benefits from Georgia.

How does full-employment affect the rate of unemployment?

Full employment is where everyone over 16 who wants a job has a job. The good thing about employment is that the government can cut taxes because they do not pay out as much on benefits. The disadvantage about unemployment is that if people are unemployed the government will be paying more on benefits which means taxes will go up because the government won't be able to afford the benefits.
