Absolutely! I'm collecting right now due to lay offs.
Probably not. To receive unemployment you have to be willing and able to work.
No. You can only draw it when you are fired or laid off.
How much unemployment will I receive a week after baing laid off a 30K a year job?
Yes, you will still be able to receive unemployment. I am not sure if the amount of severence has anything to do with it though. I received a severence and still qualified for max unemployment benefits.
You have the right to file for unemployment, but if you receive a severance package from your employer you may be violating the terms of your severance package by filing for unemployment.
Yes you can collect unemployment if u get laid off the postal.
My suggestion is to check with your state unemployment office. They have access to many resources for those who have been laid off.
I can't give you a specific answer without more information but I will do my best to answer some of your questions. If you are still employed and have not been laid off you will not be eligible for unemployment. If you are not being paid and have been temporarily laid off (which means you have a job when business picks up) then you can apply for benefits. If you aren't working right now due to an injury you can apply for temporary disability. Here is the website where you can apply for either the unemployment or disability for your area: http://www.dlt.state.ri.us/FileaClaim.htm
In most places, no. Even if they legally could receive unemployment, in most cases it would be unethical for them to do so. Missionaries are typically supported by some sort of organization. Many missionaries are not technically employed, but they do receive donations and support from a church, ministry, or charity. Also, missionaries are voluntarily unemployed, and unemployment benefits are generally reserved for those who have been laid off or who are unable to work due to disability.
Sorry to hear man. What you will need to do is go down to your local unemployment office and apply. As long as losing your job wasn't your fault, you just have to be able to prove you are looking for a new job and are available to work. If so, you should receive unemployment benefits in about two weeks.
Yes, an employ of a catholic school can collect unemployment if they are laid off or wrongfully terminated. This school would have been required to pay into the unemployment system.
It's still called unemployment. You can get partial payment if you are working less. You apply the same way you would if you'd been laid off.
