I have the exact same question/situation with an additional thought. I have the opportunity to work a full time temporary job preparing taxes from Jan - Apr. Then I will be unemployed again and can claim benefits again. My question is when I start claiming benefits again, will it go against the temporary employer or the last employer where I worked for 3 years and my job was eliminated? And what is the 4 week delay about??? I know I can't claim benefits while I am working but if still in the same claim year, I already had my waiting week so I assume benefits should just start right up again, no??? Thanks so much for your thoughts!
