My days of work have been recently cut from 5 days a week to 2, which has drastically cut my income to 1/3 what I was making. I still am working for the company and trying to ride out this slow period. Am I eligible for any benefits to fill in the loss?

  2. I worked for Bismarck Police Dept. for 4 years and my husband has severe heart health issues that required us to move to a warmer and drier climates in NM. I had to resign my position. Am I eligible for unemployment benefits.
