Can you recieve unemployment for something that happened outside of work?

Question

I was working for my parents business. I never recieved a write up or anything and did my best at my job. I applied for a new job some where else and my parents refused to take me to my interview (My car is in the shop.) We had an argument because I felt that she was trying to stop me from getting a new job. It was only a verbal argument about how she is always trying to control my life. Because of the argument we had she said that she dosnt want me to work for her anymore because she cant stand to be around me since we had the argument. So my question is wil I be able to recieve unemployment for something that happened outside of work. Again I say I never did anything AT work that my mom could have a reason to fire me. The argument was only at home.

Answer 1

Although the standards for unemployment compensation vary somewhat by state, the general rule when an employee is fired or terminated is that he is still eligible for benefits unless a deliberate and repeated pattern of serious misconduct can be established by the employer. See the site below for details. Failure to disclose that you were looking for another job or not being able to be around you are not valid reasons for denying unemployment insurance. Also search online for "[your state] unemployment requirements" for detailed information in your case and how to apply if it becomes necessary. But do not quit your job, as that would hinder your chances of receiving benefits.



Good luck with the security clearance and the new job prospect!

Answer 2

You can only collect unemployment if the employer pays into the unemployment insurance fund



If you just getting cash, then you have nothing to claim



You are not too smart of a fellow are you (sorry, just call it the way it is)

Answer 3

Only if your parent's biz had paid into unemployment for you.

Answer 4

as long as you parents paid your payroll you just like everyone else and paid the FUTA and SUTA taxes you sure can.
