What is open unemployment?
In a nutshell, once a person has established employment, he qualifies for 'open unemployment'. Upon the person losing his job, he is entitled to 'open unemployment'.

This and other social programs are increasingly becoming the reasons for unstable economies around the world.
Can you file for unemployment if you left a company to start your own?
Although unemployment laws vary from state to state, the purpose of unemployment compensation is to provide income to someone who has lost their job through no fault of their own. Thus, it is required that you have left the company involuntarily, and you are not eligible if you quit. Check with your state's unemployment commission to see what the requirements are to claim unemployment in your area. You are going to have to contact them to start benefits anyway - it never hurts to ask if your particular circumstance qualifies you for unemployment.
If your teaching job was eliminated can you file for unemployment?
Unemployment eligibility varies by state, but typically if you are unemployed through no fault of your own, if you are able to work full-time, and if you made enough money in the "qualification period" set by your state, you will be eligible for unemployment. A layoff qualifies as "no fault of your own," but it's up to you to meet the other two requirements.
Why must employers keep employee records for unemployment benefit claims?
Any time a former employee files for unemployment benefits, the unemployment office must contact the employer to ascertain the reason for the employee leaving his employment.

How can you receive unemployment and work only part time?
If you have a work history that qualifies you to receive unemployment benefits in the first place, check with the employment security office in your state. Most states will allow your earning some income while on benefits, but each has their own formulas for doing so.
