To qualify for benefits, you must have been paid wages for insured work, for civilian employment with the federal government, or for active duty in the military service in two or more quarters of your base period.

The regular base period is the first four of the last five completed calendar quarters before the effective date of your new claim for unemployment insurance benefits.

Each quarter equals 3 months. so two or more quarters would be a minimum of 6 months.

No. The five states that offset unemployment benefits by your Social Security are: Illinois, Louisiana, South Dakota, Utah and Virginia. South Dakota and Virginia formally repealed their offset laws, but have a provision allowing them to reduce unemployment compensation by 50% of your Social Security benefit when the state unemployment funds drop below a pre-determined threshold.
