What are the chances i will be approved for unemployment?

Question

I was fired from my job of 8 years due to tardiness. I have a son to take care and im just feel so lost right now. The tardiness was due to my son's sleep issues (he has night terrors) and issues with dropping him off at the babysitter and also car trouble. any advice would be much appreciated. thank you

Answer 1

you will probably be able to get it.  If you do get it or get another job let them know about your circumstances and also ask for FMLA this is a Federal Medical Leave Act that will allow you to take care of your son when he is ill------you Must have documentation from your Dr. that says what his condition is etc.  Check it out.

Answer 2

Sorry, you can't get unemployment if you were fired.  You can try but it will most likely be rejected.  The unemployment office always contacts the former employer to determine why you were terminated.
