Probably not, as theft would be considered gross misconduct. But you can still try

Can I collect unemployment if I was fired for stealing in California?

In California, if you were fired for stealing, you are generally not eligible for unemployment benefits. The state's Employment Development Department (EDD) considers misconduct, such as theft, as a disqualifying factor for receiving unemployment compensation. However, you may appeal the decision if you believe the circumstances surrounding your termination warrant eligibility. It's advisable to consult with a legal expert or the EDD for specific guidance regarding your situation.

Can you get benefits if you were fired?

If you lost your job through no fault of your own, then you could be eligible. There will be an adjudication process in which an interviewer contacts you and the employer to get statements of the events that led up to your termination. The employer has to prove that you did something wrong to lose your job. For example, theft, broke a policy over & over again after being written up several times, etc. It is possible to receive benefits. If you are denied, appeal it!It depends on the circumstances of the firing. If it was for downsizing, a bad fit, company cutbacks, you may well be eligible If the firing was for cause, such as failing a drug test, stealing, lying etc. you may not be eligible. Check with your local unemployment office for a decision.It depends on your state's allowable reasons for being fired as to whether you are eligible. If fired for reasonable causes (theft, drugs, violence, insubordination, etc.), then probably not.Yes, if you were fired for no fault of your own. The state will investigate your claim and if they find you were innocent of violating reasonable company policy or any other punishable offense, they will most likely award you the benefits.no, unless you were laid offAnother answer:Yes, if the firing were through no fault of your own. This would be determined by the state investigator examining your claim.

Can you collect unemployment if you were fired for an outside shoplifting charge?

The answer to this question is not as absolute as one might think. In Minnesota, an applicant for unemployment benefits is not automatically denied compensation if fired for stealing. Just because an employer says an employee was terminated for stealing does not mean the employee was in fact stealing. The first issue is whether or not theft was the cause for termination. If yes, it is critical to examine whether or not theft can be proven. If the employee in fact intentionally stole from their employer, misrepresenting this fact can lead to fraud, overpayment of unemployment benefits, and criminal prosecution. If the employee did not steal from their employer, then the fact that an employer claims theft should be challenged. The third issue is what was stolen. The fourth issue is what was the value of the property stolen. In Minnesota, the answers to these questions determine whether or not the employee was involved with aggravated employment misconduct. Given the severity of this issue and because it is not necessarily black and white, consider seeking an opinion from an attorney.


Can you collect unemployment if you were fired and then got another job and was temp laid off?

First, on the job you quit. Unless you quit for allowable reasons (harassment, working conditions, discrimination, etc.) you would not be allowed unemployment benefits. Second, as to being fired, it depends on the basis for being fired (justified, employee caused problem, theft, violation of company policies (that are allowed), etc.). If for those kind of reasons, then no, also. However, if being fired was through no fault of your own, then the other rules for unemployment criteria apply, such as length of work time in basis period, amount of earnings, is employer one in the category liable for unemployment, was the basis for your pay hourly or salary (as opposed to 100% commission or independent contractor, etc.) Because each state has its own rules for all the above, you need to check with your state's unemployment office for qualifications.
