Apparently, in Tennessee, if you are partially unemployed (part-time employed??) you are not disqualified for filing for unemployment. To be on the safe side, refer to the Related Link below for more information.
The 99-week unemployment benefits extension was a program in the United States that extended unemployment insurance benefits to a maximum of 99 weeks for individuals who had exhausted their standard 26 weeks of state benefits during periods of high unemployment. This extension was introduced in response to the economic downturn following the 2008 financial crisis, aiming to provide financial support to those struggling to find work. The program was part of a series of temporary measures enacted to address rising unemployment rates and was phased out gradually as the economy improved.
