Best Answer

If you are seeking unemployment AFTER holding a "commission only" job, most likely not. If you get a "commission only" job after starting to receive unemployment, it depends on how much you earn (you have to report all income during the benefit period) compared to the benefit payments and whether your state allows this in the first place, as each state has its own regulations pertaining to benefits.
