Best Answer

Unemployment is reserved for people who lost their employment through no fault of their own, so yes. However, you do need to qualify for unemployment based on your employment history. When you apply for benefits they will advise you if you do qualify based on your wages in the base period that they are using.

Probably - unemployment is typically only available if you are unable to work due to reasons no fault of your own, and this situation seems to qualify.

Whether he pays himself a paycheck or not, the employer is still in control of the company and therefore not eligible for benefits as an employee.

If your employer goes bankrupt can you file for unemployment?

In bankruptcy, a company is obligated to pay employees and other labor first. Contract labor and suppliers fall in line somewhere after that. If the company is able to stay in business, the employees shouldn't be affected too much unless the company just can't support that many employees, in which case there may be a need for layoffs.

Is the unemployment office open the day after Christmas?

Technically the day after Thanksgiving is not a federal holiday, so in some situations unemployment offices may be open the day after Thanksgiving. The bottom line is, this will vary from state to state, as unemployment is a state administrated benefit regulated by the states individually. I can say that in Washington state, however, they are closed. Many other states will likely be closed after Thanksgiving either as an added bonus for their employees, or as a cost-cutting measure. To get a definite answer for your particular state I would suggest searching your state's website, but it is likely they will be closed.
