Unemployment qualifications workin 9 months part time for a school will I qualify? Been "Mom" for 8 yrs.

Question

I used to work full time with great pay but have had 4 kids since then and have been playing Mommy for the last 8 yrs. I want to apply for unemployment for the summer before I go back to work for the school part time coming in fall but I don't know if I will qualify on those terms. It's not time to file yet but I want to be prepared for that income whether I get it or not. I don't understand the base year table. Can someone plz HELP ME figure this out?

Answer 1

You did not says where you live. Check with the State your in, employment office for the state guide lines on collecting unemployment. Yes it is that simple. Because each state may be different.

Answer 2

You will not qualify for UE unless you have wages reported under your SS# in the past 18 mos. This is called the Base Period. Without wages in the Base Period, no UE can be granted.
