In CA, the unemployment comp period already approved just keeps running, you just don't get a check in the weeks when you new job income exceeds your weekly unemployment amount.
If you are laid off again you immediately get your weekly check without the one week waiting period on the original claim. (This helps honest job seekers who will take any work offered including temp jobs.)
When the approved period runs out, you can apply to the state to extend your claim for another approved period up to 99 weeks total, if the Feds are funding and the state agrees to that funding.
Wow. Doesn’t sound like there’s much incentive to work for long if you can manage to get by on unemployment....then there’s always food stamps which are easier to get now. If you are young, unemployed, and can manage to live at home or share housing with other unemployed people, you could get by quite easily on other peoples money I would think.
Thanks for the info.
