    Default Benefits Stopped After Refusal of Lower-Paid Work

    My question involves unemployment benefits for the state of: Indiana

    I was honest in answering my work search question. On page 9 of the handbook, it states I can refuse an offer of employment within the first 8 weeks of claiming if it is less than 90% of the pay I was receiving from my former employer. Once I did that (ANSWERED HONESTLY) all benefits stopped. I called my local Work One Center and was informed a 6 week investigation would take place to determine if my benefits would continue. She asked what the minimum was I told the Employer I would take, and I told her it was $1.20 more than what they offered. She said then I complied with their guidelines and that after 6 weeks, I could get my benefits back.

    I now am so stressed about paying bills and trying to find a job.

    She said there was no re-course. Do I have any legal re-course?
