My question involves unemployment benefits for the state of: California
Okay, I have been on unemployment since April of 07. I was approved by UI into the Workforce Investment act. I was approved to attend school from August 2007 to August 2008. My claim for the extended benefits was up in April. I filed a new claim, it was approved, then denied because they said I needed to earn X amount of dollars in that time. But they approved me to not work so how could I have worked? And, why would they approve me to go to school and not pay me until August 2008? I am set to graduate then and what is the use of going thru the whole school year if they don't let me finish it? I won't get my vocational certificate....My one stop carrer center guy wrote me a letter and I go in tommorrow at 2pm for my hearing. Can anyone give me anymore advice as to what I might say? I do have money still in my base periods. When I reopned my claim I still had enough in there to get UI but it would be about 80 dollars less a month than before.
Thanks so much!
