Vacation implies that you still have a job. So, you would not receive unemployment benefits. And, even if you were to get benefits, I'm sure you wouldn't have a job to go back to afterwards.
Actually, you cannot file for unemployment if you were terminated--you are only eligible if you were terminated without cause. Even so, some jobs may not be eligible for unemployment benefits. The easiest way to find out would be to ask your former employer.
No, one week without work is not unemployment. It's a vacation.
Go on your state unemployment site.
You can draw both unemployment and disability in Washington State. There is a limit to the amount of unemployment you can draw without it affecting your disability payments. Each situation is unique.
It doesn't. As long as you can qualify for them individually, you can receive both without either affecting the other.
No, unfortunately, you have to be at least 62 years old to receive Social Security retirement benefits.
It would serve no purpose. To remain eligible for benefits you have to be actively searching for full time work and reporting your progress by giving the names, addresses, dates and times of interviews, etc. to the state office, which couldn't be done out of state without disclosing where you are.
Generally, no. Unemployment eligibility depends on the state; some allow unemployment payments if you were fired for cause, while many do NOT allow it. Unemployment is currently paid for 99 weeks, about 19 months. After 6 years without work, it's very unlikely that you could receive unemployment. But I suppose it's worth asking; what's the worst that they could say? NO! Then you're no worse off than you would be if you didn't ask. But I wouldn't count on it.
Yes. Although you must report any earnings you receive while getting unemployment benefits, the Related Link below says you do not have to report the Social Security benefits, meaning it does not affect your unemployment.
No, aliens are not eligible for federal student aid programs such as the Pell Grant. To qualify for federal student aid, individuals must be U.S. citizens, U.S. nationals, or eligible non-citizens. Aliens without eligible status are generally not able to receive federal financial aid.
Yes, you can if you want, but it's not necessary as you can receive both at the same time without either interfering with the other (unless you are in one of the states that offset unemployment by SS benefits - Illinois, Utah and Virginia)
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
