Who does the official unemployment rate ignore?

Because the 'official rate' uses data from the unemployment offices (who record claims of the unemployed), those not counted are: 1) those who have run out of benefits and are no longer reporting to the state; 2) Those who have given up looking for work, for various reasons; 3) those who have just come into the work force ( from out of school, etc.) and are looking, but don't qualify for unemployment so the office is unaware of them; 4) those looking for work, but not fitting the description of 'worker' ( i.e. under-aged, unqualified, immigrant, day-laborer, self-employed, etc.); 5) workers in 'commission-only' industries ( Realtors, insurance, independent contractors, etc.), as they generally do not qualify for unemployment.
