My question involves unemployment benefits for the state of: ca
There is a bit more complication to this story.
I lost my job in Sep 2013 (last year). I file for unemployment back then and exhausted my benefit earlier this year. And try starting my own business, lost money and closed business.
I been told that since my claim expire in one year I can file for another claim. And this new claim will be based on my income in the quarters ending in June 2013, sept 2013, dec 2013, march 2014. So based on this I would qualified.
The problems is I am going out of the country Oct 9-to Oct-22. My question is should I file now or when I get back? In Oct 22.
I am concern because when I file last year I had an interview and it happen around the october. I am thinking they may need information from me especially if my old employer does not respond to edd.
What do you guy think? Got any experience with this? I am not that worry about getting my money later. I am concern about putting my claim in danger.
I am a little concern that my claim will be based on only 1 quarter where I have income instead of 2 if I file in oct. But my quarterly income exceed the maximum for benefit.
