My question involves unemployment benefits for the state of: CA.

I was let go of my first job on MAY earning $57k a year and to meet my expenses I had a second job that paid me $22k.

When I was let go of my first job, I fild for unemployment and was given the max of $450 whcih was less that half of what I got at my last position.

I was not aware that I had to report my second job earnings so they are asking for a explaination why I did not report my other earning; I did not think I need to do so.

The irony of the story is, it is september 10th and as of the 16th I will no longer have my second job.

How do I explain my case so I do not loose my unemployment benifit? and still get my max pay of $450. I have gone through my savings, jobs are hard to get and I have a mortgage of $1,950. I do not want to loose my house.

I do not qalify to get a loan on my house becuase I do not have a job. what do I do?
