Thank you everyone for the advice. I spoke another rep. today from DOL since I was not happy with the one from yesterday. She went on to tell me that my claim was approved mainly because they believe my explanation for my reason for being let go. My employer's explanation has changed numerous times so they believe my former employer is lying, trying to throw stuff out to see what sticks (not her exact words). Besides thier explanation of getting involved with office politics is not an offense that would get you denied UIB because it is not the same as if you were caught stealing, lied on your app., stuff like that. Thier explanation left open to interpret that they didn't like my shirt one day and my nail polish the next. Now I just hope my former employer doesn't want a hearing if so I'm ready to take this there.
