Each state has their own requirements but, in general, you wouldn't be eligible for the reasons on leaving the first job. On the second, because the job was lost through no fault of your own, it would depend on the new state's criteria concerning the work history, wages paid, etc. Check with the current state's employment security office for clarification.

It depends on your work history for the first 4 of the last 5 completed calendar quarters (in most states). They evaluate the reasons for leaving the jobs in that base period and any other requirement they may have for determining your eligibility. They normally lump together entitlements from all employment in that period, not just the last job worked at.

You need to file for unemployment under an address within the same state you worked in. Use a friend or family members address.

You probably qualify for unemployment benefits from the job you were laid off from, if your work history and earnings were sufficient for the state's requirements. Doubtful on the 2nd job, if your leaving it "for greener pastures" was the only reason you left. I recommend you contact the employment secuity office for clarification.

Except for extensions of benefits (i.e. Tiers I to IV), you generally have 52 weeks in which to collect a total of 26 weeks of benefits, in most states.

yes and no, yes if you were laid off because of a problem that the business had and no if you were fired or laid off for not working enough.Another answer:If your question is not whether or how you lost your job, but regardless of your employment situation you lost your home, the answer would be no you cannot collect unemployment because it had nothing to do with employment. Quitting reasons, otherwise, are limited in justifiable causes, so check with your state employment security office for clarification in your case.


Can you refuse overtime on a weekend because you have not got no one to look after your child?

This depends if you are on an employment contract or not. If the contract requires you to work overtime then you are obligated to do so or you could lose your job and be denied from collecting unemployment. If you are not under an employment contract, you are probably an at will employee. If you are at will your employment can be terminated at any time for any reason. Depending on the circumstances, if you refuse overtime and are terminated you might still be allowed to collect unemployment. It really boils down to whether or not you agreed, when starting to work for the business, to work overtime when required. Then again, if that is not in writing its just one word against another and you'd probaby get the unemployment in the end anyway.


Why is it difficult to measure unemployment accurately?

Measuring unemployment accurately is made difficult because of imperfect knowledge. Not all instances of unemployment are recorded, and some records of unemployment may not be accurate. Because the unemployed are eligible for benefits, some individuals may work, but not disclose it, and claim benefit. Conversely, many unemployed may not bother to inform the authorities, and this unemployment goes unrecorded.
