If your drawing unemployment in one state and start work in another state can you keep drawing unemployment from the first?

You may still be able to work when you are collecting unemployment benefits without losing your benefits. Rules vary from state to state, but typically if you work for less than a certain threshold of your former salary (e.g. 80%), unemployment will pay the difference between what you make and that threshold.

It seems you are asking whether you can work in State A and not notify State B where you collect unemployment, which is benefits fraud and is against the law, carrying severe penalties.

Can you collect unemployment and day trade stocks.If you make money day trading will it be taking from your unemployment?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The stocks that you have currently being traded are assets and are not liquid, just like a house would be an asset that appreciates but is not considered cash-in-hand. If the asset remains in a non-liquid form but increases in value, even if it's traded, this should not affect unemployment insurance benefits. Capital gains occur when the stock is sold for a higher price than what it was originally purchased for and does become liquid, i.e. becomes cash-in-hand. Capital gains do have to be reported to the IRS and are taxed. If the capital gain is liquidated (sold), such may be considered as income that may affect unemployment insurance benefits dollar-to-dollar, but to make absolutely sure that the investment liquidation is privy to a reduction in benefits, I would call your local ESC office. I could not find anything in WA's ESC laws that state, specifically, the relationship between capital gains and unemployment compensation...then again, more than likely, not many people have this issue. At any rate, again, I would call the local ESC and I would think about calling your CPA to discuss the difference between how each are reported at the end of the year.

How does 401k disbursement affect unemployment in Texas?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In some states your unemployment benefits would be offset by the disbursement, especially that part of it which was contributed to by your employer. This is generally done in the week received against the week you got benefits.

This depends on what state you work in. Some are very liberal and others deduct pensions, retirements, Social Security, etc. so you need to contact your own state's employment office to find out what yours would do.

Some states offset your unemployment by a portion (usually the employer's contribution) and others aren't effected.

How long do you have to work for a company to receive unemployment?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It's not really a matter of how long that you have been with one company. Your entire work history is evaluated, for the last year or so, the reason you left your last employer is an important consideration, as well as when you last received EI benefits. Generally, though 12 weeks of continuous employment will give you some benefits.

Can pastors receive unemployment benefits?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I'm so sorry for your loss. Been there.

Generally, you can't receive benefits since churches are not required by law to pay into unemployment insurance for their employees. Some churches do, so it's worth asking. Your only other recourse is to prove your church was a hostile workplace. This process could turn ugly, however, if you have been fired from a church position, the situation is already most likely pretty ugly. See your local unemployment office or website for information on starting this process.

In lieu of benefits, some churches will offer severance packages. Pastors would be wise to seek out help from local denominational leaders to negotiate for them and increase their chances of receiving benefits. Given the state of the economy, it is completely fair to ask for six months benefits, but most churches settle for three or less.

Don't allow a crushed self-esteem to keep you from applying for other ministry jobs right away. Ask other ministers' advice on how to explain your departure to future employers. Also, seek at least a part-time job while you wait. You will most likely be grossly over-qualified for the job, but at least you'll have the peace of mind of having an income, and you can quit as soon as God leads you to your new ministry opportunity.

How long do you need to be employed to collect NJ state unemployment benefits?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It took me almost three weeks. They just have to take their time verifying your paperwork and whatnot. Besides your first week is unpaid so you have to keep that in mind and if you are granted benefits, you won't get them until your third week of claiming them. It never hurts to call them.

Well, that all depends on what was the outcome why you were separated from your job, if it was a no fault of your own. Here in New Jersey and many States they set a penalty of up to 6 weeks if you were fired, Keep in mind if you were fired for misconduct you will be mailed a letter that you do not qualify for benefits for 6 weeks from the date you file without retroactive pay, if you were lay-ed off, or your hours were cut then you will have no problems of receiving within a week. I was fired Sept 22, 2009 I filed that day and receiving a letter for a phone interview on Oct 8th during the interview via Phone I explained why I was terminated ;fortunately my story was the same in which the company stated but the failed to mention a few things which was in my favor. On the 14th my unemployment was in my direct Deposit account I receive from the State of New Jersey the maximum of 601.00 weekly and I will be moving to San Antonio Texas. There are times when people do have to wait a bit longer, keep in mind if you were fired don't let anyone tell you that you will not receive unemployment that is false, you have to do commit a "Gross Misconduct" to be denied benefits, Good luck.

How long are unemployment benefits in Nevada?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

As in most states, Nevada's base period is the first 4 quarters of the last 5 completed calendar quarters. Now, you have to earn at least $400 in one of those quarters, and the total base period earnings has to be at least 1 1/2 times the highest quarter's earnings, OR you had to have earnings in at least 3 of 4 of those quarters. This could include several jobs, the last probably being the one charged, in most cases.

Is there unemployment benefits even though you have exhausted all benefits?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you live in a state with higher unemployment rates than the norm, there are extensions to the unemployment benefits one normally gets, and on the same basis. Otherwise, check with your state's Human Resources equivalent for things like Medicaid (for health), food stamps, etc. within each state, workers comp (if you were injured on the job), training (under some approved programs), etc. There was also the Stimulus Bill, and job extension bill signed into law 11/6/09.

Can one collect unemployment benefits is he is retireable?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you voluntarily leave your job, and are not laid off, then you are not eligible for unemployment. Also, while on unemployment, you must keep records of your job search that show you are looking. One of the things you verify when you call in weekly is that you are looking for work and are available to work. If not, you run the chance of having to repay the funds.
