Yes, Kentucky requires a one-week waiting period before unemployment benefits are paid out. This means that claimants must serve a week without receiving benefits before they can start receiving payments for subsequent weeks of unemployment. However, during this waiting week, individuals can still file their claims and report any eligible earnings.
The waiting week is for formal unemployment. Not for discipline reasons.
Wednesday or Friday
Generally it offsets the unemployment compensation in the week paid.

The unemployment taxes (which are paid ONLY by the businesses) paid into the state's unemployment benefit fund, are decided by each state as to terms and conditions.
I moved from Washington to Missouri, I found a job right away but it was seasonal. When I was laid off for the winter I had not worked long enough in MO to be eligible for unemployment thru Missouri, so my claim was paid out of Washington (at that state's maximum amount). It was definately a benefit because it paid more than Missouri would have. In fact, I received more in unemployment per week than I got paid per week in Missouri
