My hours have been cut in half by my employer through no fault of mine. There is a possibility of returning to full time next year. Can I apply for unemployment? If yes, is there a specific form for that circumstance? Thank you-
Deborah,
Please note you can be eligible to claim partial UI benefits until full-hours are restored. Please consider applying.
I received a call from Rachel asking for a copy of my severance amount. I had faxed it in earlier in the day. I just want to make sure you received it.
Debra,
Please note this is a private forum and we do not have access to your claim file. Please call the Claims Center to make sure they’ve received your documents.
I am attempting retirement. Was told it can be retroactive Jan 1 st if state of ri permits me to do this even if I have received unemployment. Apparently is available in some states I have been unsuccessful in reaching you.
Kathie,
Please note this is a private forum. I did not quite understand your question. Please elaborate.
