I would check with your local unemployment office but you should be able to work part time. You have to report it - unemployment would just be a supplement to your part time job income.

There's a place on the form where you declare any work you did during the period. You could still receive the benefits but they could be less for the period where you earned income.

Regarding part time work. Be very careful each state is different. And each claim is according to base pay. In Massachusetts you can work part time for up to 1/3rd of your base pay and still collect. It is advisable when calling you understand what you are agreeing to. I find it difficult with some of the foreign languages.

what happens when an employer states that you've turned down a job? If you have a permanent part-time job and a temp agency offers you a job not knowing how long it would last, do you take the temp position?

I am hoping somebody can help me with this!
I was fired from my job of two years that I loved last summer, and I'm now collecting unemployment from them. I took on a part time job in a fast food restaurant in September of last year, hoping that I could do that temporarily while looking for something else with slightly better pay. I just needed the extra money, and I still do.
However, things are not as they seem there. It took them a whole month after they hired me in to actually get me started, and ever since I have been there I have not been given more than five hours a week the whole time I have worked there. (They actually docked me down to three hours a week starting last month after the first of the year.) The job itself is also horrible, and the stress they are causing me is not even worth it. (I have actually lost sleep over the whole thing.) There are days when I come home in tears over it. I have asked about getting more hours, and the response I got from the manager is that I'm not competent enough to be able to handle more hours, when I know that's not true. I worked for a fast food restaurant for six years throughout high school and college, and never once did I have any problems not being "competent" enough for them. It's just that I was never trained for what I'm doing right now. I was basically thrown in there and they said "Here. Do it.", leaving me to figure everything out for myself.
So my question is does anybody here know if I have to keep this job in order to be able to keep drawing my unemployment? It's getting ridiculous because I'm only working not even one full day a week and it's starting to cost me more to come to work than I'm making at work! By the time I drive there and drive back, I've spent almost everything I've made working on gas. I picked up my most recent paycheck along with my W2s today, and my W2s are a joke! Federal didn't take anything out because there wasn't enough there for them to take anything out, and the state collected a whole whopping $3.39 from me for last year.
For the record, I live and work in Michigan.
Help, please!!!! -

To my knowledge if you quitt the part time job you can loose the unemployment, but call the unemployment office and asked this question. Each State is different.
When you collect unemployment you can work part time, you will not receive the full amount on enemployment if you work part time, and be honest, report the income every 14 days, because the employee is reporting the same. -

I will be laid off in a few months. If I start my own "party consultant" company (ex. tupperware, maryk, avon, etc.) and only get paid commission, will I still be eligible to collect unemployment from losing my full time job? I don't imagine I will make more than what unemployement would be giving me, but I worry because it is my own business and I don't know where to go or who to ask this question to. No one seems to have the answer. BTW I am in Ohio.

The office manager also will cut as much as 1/2 hour on our punch ins and punch outs. There is valid proof in their computer system we are still there off the clock. Please help us....Can we collect unemployment? If they only acknowledge we work 31 hours in one week, does this not disqualify us from full time status and could potentally affect health insurance we pay for? Please help.

Word to the wise- if you work part-time and draw unemployment report it, Because at some point it will be discovered through your social security number.

Worked Part Time in Texas
December 24, 2011 at 1:16 pm
After a few months on Texas Unemployment I got kind of stir crazy around the house. Unable to find a job and the holidays approaching. Called the Texas Workforce Commission to see if working part time would adversely affect my Unemployment payment, their answer was "no".
Decided to put in for a Driver Helper job w/ UPS. Got the job ($8.50/hr)! Worked ONE day for 5 hours, got deathly sick w/ flu. Could not work for a few days, UPS took me OFF their list of part timers.
Filed my usual unemployment claim. Computer told me my claim was null and void, that I would have to talk to TX Workforce Commission rep to get it reinstated. Call TWFC, on hold for 20 minutes. Got rep, she did everything in the book to try and void my unemployment!
Wound up getting docked for 2 weeks of unemployment ($430), made $35 net at UPS.
Moral of the story, if considering taking a part time job while searching for full time employment, BE VERY CAREFUL! -

I have been with my comany for over a year. during that tme they have cut my hours, moved me from position to position, changed the hours i was initially hired for and given eople who started after me better hours. All of this and i never complained. recently i asked to be returned to the hours I was initially hired for because i have lost my child care and need to be able to pick my child from school cause i had no other way. My boss in a very rude manner told me i needed to find to find away or he had nothing for me. Can i apply for benefits without actually being fired yet or is there some ogranization or number i can call and place a complaint with. I live in texas.

I am currently collecting unemployment. I am unable to find full time employment. I saw an available job that had part time hours (3days week, 3hrs per day, total 9hrs) How would this affect my benefits?
