I recently got cut down to 23 hours a week, am I eligible for partial unemployment?

To be eligible for partial unemployment benefits, you must meet the following requirements:

• You must have earned enough wages in the past year to qualify for benefits.
• You must be able to work.
• You must be available to work.
• You must be actively looking for work.

The amount of partial unemployment benefits you receive will vary depending on your state’s unemployment laws. In general, you will receive a weekly benefit amount that is equal to a portion of your previous earnings.

If you are unsure whether you are eligible for partial unemployment benefits, you should contact your state’s unemployment agency. They can provide you with more information about your eligibility and how to file a claim.

Here are some additional things to keep in mind:

• Your state’s unemployment laws. The eligibility requirements for partial unemployment benefits vary from state to state.
• Your financial situation. If you are unable to find a new job right away, partial unemployment benefits can help you to make ends meet.
• Your ability to work. If you are unable to work due to a disability, you may be eligible for disability benefits instead of partial unemployment benefits.

If you are considering filing for partial unemployment, it is important to weigh all of your options carefully. Filing for partial unemployment can have a negative impact on your future employment prospects, so it is important to make sure that you are making the right decision.
