depends on the reason you were fired. Actually the chances are greater if you are fired because it was not your decision to leave the job. i can use myself for an example. I was working as a gas attendant. A customer drove off with $30.00 in gas and I was $5.00 short in my register giving me a total shortage of $35.00. The maxium you are allowed to be short without getting fired was $25.00 on this particular job. So they terminated me. However, i was still able to get unemployment. On the other hand my husband got into a fight on his job and was terminated however, he was not able to collect unemployment. So as you can see...it depends on the reason.
Sure can, that's its purpose.
Each state has its own rules. Generally, if you were fired for good cause, you will not receive unemployment or it may have a longer waiting period than if you were laid off.

Most states have an appeals process. If you are denied unemployment, you should begin the appeals process. Most employers (few people seem to know this) do not follow up if the former employee appeals the denial of benefits. After going through the appeals process successfully, you get your benefits that you worked for and paid for.
