492702
I recently moved from CA to TX...  I collected unemployment from CA because I had to quit my job and move because my husband was transfered to Texas with his job.  \n\nMy sister moved with us, and she got unemployment from CA as well because she graduated college and moved back in with us (her primary residence before college) and she quit her job she had while in college.    So yes... it is possible as long as you had a good reason for quitting.\n\nThe sooner you call and apply... or go online the better because there is a waiting period of one week before benefits start.

I am dealing with the same issue, I called the Unemployment office and they said as soon as I am officially laid off I can apply. It takes about 10 days before you receive any benefits.

Unless your employer signed up for this service, you're SOL.\n\nContact your employer and advise your correct address.

First off, see if you can get some legal advice on this situation.  If you were solely terminated for this reason, you may have some legal reprecussions.\nSecondly, find a new job bank agency.  Seemingly, you were qualified enough for whatever your new job would have been, so another company should be able to find you a similar job.\nThirdly, I believe you would still be able to get unemployment insurance, but you would still need to contact your local unemployment agency.\nHopefully in the future, if you are looking for a new job while still employed, tell the agency you dont want them to contact your current employer, or better yet, do the job hunting yourself.

I know enough to tell you that this involuntary transfer cannot be  based on your sister's age, disability, national origin, pregnancy status, race, religion or gender. That would definitely constitute discrimination and violate federal and state labor laws.\n\nHaving said that, it isn't likely her employers are stupid enough to give any of those reasons as the basis for this transfer, even if that were true.   \n\nIf her position isn't being eliminated (ie:  they'll either have to hire someone to replace her, or transfer someone in from the other store to do her job), then she has probably guessed their reasons, although it seems unlikely that anyone could prove that.   \n\nRegardless, I would urge one of you to contact the local unemployment office immediately.  It's cheaper than contacting a lawyer - the unemployment office will certainly know all the labor laws for your state, and should be able to advise you for free whether this constitutes violation of those laws or not.  \n\nIf her employers are in violation, then the unemployment office will recognize that immediately and should be able to advise you how to proceed.  \n\nRemember, they don't want your sister unemployed any more than she wants to be.  Their job is to keep qualified people working and avoid paying those federal unemployment benefits.  If her employer is in violation, they'll be the very first to admit it to you.\n\nYou might as well contact them anyway - if she doesn't have transporation and is forced to resign, she will have to know whether she would be eligible for unemployment or not.  That information alone may help each of you decide how to best proceed here....whether it's worth a battle or not.\n\nGood luck!  I think most people would naturally be on your side!

In Illinois and Iowa this is a no-no.... Ohio, being a red-state (yes, I know, Iowa is too, the fools), might be able to do this.  You'll have to check further. Call your state department of employment (you know, the people you would call if you had to apply for unemployment).... They should be able to tell you.... What city in Ohio do you live in? -beaver (Rock Island, Illinois)\n\nAnother thing you could do is MOVE HERE! Less people, nicer people, more farmland... More open spaces, good jobs...  you can email me if you are interested.

I think that the sources below hit the issue on the head.  The only thing that I am not sure about is if Kentucky pays unemployment when your husband gets transferred from Kentucky.  In this situation, the question is should Washington be paying the unemployment.  Take a look and then check into the local Employment Office.\n\nH.B. 293\nPassed House 2/25/05\nAmends KRS 341.370 to prohibit benefit disqualification of a spouse who leaves employment because of a military transfer.

unemployment department has a good reputation for finding jobs in California also you can try temporary agencies if you need immediate employment look for them in the yellow pages under employment agencies.

You have to apply at the unemployment office in your city/state.  It's easy, but you should probably try to go at least a half-hour before they open to avoid possible lines and a long wait.  The critera mainly involves having worked for the past 6 months steadily, whether it's one job or a combination of jobs.  If you quit your last job, you might not be able to collect, but if you were laid off, or fired unjustly, you'll be fine.

You should first talk with your unemployment agency to find the date and which office, mailed from. you need the 3 on the check and your post office can also helpyou with your tracking it, but you have to know where and when first.

Check with local unemployment office.  Not sure company would have to provide this.

I went back and read your question.  Where are you coming from?  The cheapest way to move anywhere is to drive.  Rent a u'haul truck, tow your car, and just drive.  What part of Texas are you moving to?  I'm from Texas.  Good luck

I'm not sure if you mean YOU are moving out of state or if the COMPANY is moving out of state.  If the company is moving I  would check with your companies HR department then check your rights on your states unemployment website.  They will give you the run down of what classifies as justifiable termination of employment.  I was working for a non profit agency through a local hospital and when I decided to leave because the non profit was going out of business and their were no other jobs I qualified for at the hospital they would not give me UE.  I probably should have let them fire me, however I did not want that to be hanging over my head with potential employers.

I can't answer as to the legality of your situation because I don't know what state you live/work in. But in general, this would not be legal unless there were extenuating circumstances. If you are required to clock in/out and have those records available to you, and you can prove your case, I'd file a complaint with the Labor Relations Board in your state, if you have one (which I'm sure you would). In the end, though, you might lose your job, but then you'll have a valid reason for unemployment benefits. If it turns out to be a discrimination case, you might be able to sue and not have to work again... (well, I'm not really being serious about that one).

Yes, unless the unemployment office has added an endorsement on the envelope that says they do not want it forwarded. Some states allow them to be forwarded, others do not.

as an at-will employee they dont need a reason to fire you. if they do you can claim full unemployment benifits instead of the partial your getting now. might be a good time to look for a new job
