My stepdad has been working a regular job for the past year while doing real estate on the side, but making very little money from the real estate. He is going to be laid off from his regular job soon and will file for unemployment at that time. If he receives a commission payment from the sale of a house while he is receiving unemployment, is that ok?

But what type of jobs are workers having to take in order to survive? Lots of low paid, no benefit jobs for the desperate. When the unemployment insurance runs out Wal Mart is the job of last resort.

I see some jobs that I would qualify for but would be no better than my weekly unemployment rate. I may not like the job once I got it and that could jeopardize my unemployment benefits. I feel I am better off to search for a job similar to what I had. Would you take a job that paid you the same as your current unemployment rate?

We live in Oregon and my husband was recently laid off. He has recently accepted a job in Napa, California. I work for a company that I plan on transfering with and have been there for many years, but it looks like it may take a few months for a position to open. Can I collect unemployment in California while I wait for an opening and or look for a job?

My boss owns two businesses. The one I work for is closing, which would grant me unemployment. He wants to offer me a job at his SECOND business knowing full well that I cannot work there (distance issues, under the table pay, and 60+ hours a week with no overtime). If I refuse the job offer, can I still collect unemployment? I feel like he’s offering me this job specifically to keep me from getting unemployment, as he knows I cannot work it.
