Best Answer

Your former employer is responsible for paying a portion of your unemployment. It's really not fair to them to make them keep paying you even though they fired you for being a lousy employee.

So, probably not; you might want to contact the unemployment office anyway just to make sure. In general, if you were terminated "for cause" (meaning: you got fired because of something you did, like not show up for work), you're much less likely to be able to collect unemployment than if you were "laid off".

Did you lie on your job application? You can try to file for it, but if the employer contests your claim you will have to prove that you were not terminated "for cause."

Can any person collect unemployment in Washington state if you are fired?

In most cases, yes you can. You will receive notification once you file for Unemployment. When you file you select fired for attendance, or if that's not there then select fired/disqualified. Once you have filed you will be sent a letter and asked to call a number and claim (although no money will be given at this point). After about 5 weeks you are asked to do a phone interview where your employer, an Unemployment agent, and you will participate. Most cases your employer won't participate but there are some that do. After the interview they will determine if you were fired because of an ongoing medical condition or if you just didn't go to work. If your reason is the latter, you will most likely not receive benefits. If you do have a recurring medical condition, then mention this to the claims interviewer that you talk to and they will ask you to fax this info to them to give "evidence" to your claim. You will receive notification from the Unemployment center after approx 3 business days if you will receive benefits or not. Basically, if you get the unemployment you were penalized 5 weeks without benefits because of the attendance issue.
