I believe it around 60% of your pay.

I occasionally collect in the winter because I have a seasonal job.

If you're having that much trouble and you have so many expenses, then why don't you go to college?

(And I get payed 11/hour and I have a similar job as you have - or did rather.)

P.S. I should have watched this before posting my first reponse.

First off, wow you know nothing about my education nor my credentials NOR have seen or glimpsed at my resume. So don't sit there and tell me about my expenses and tell me about college. College would put me further in debt and even with my GI Bill there is still books to be paid. $11 an hour to do what I did?? I highly DOUBT you did what I did, since I had three different jobs combined in that one. And if you are only getting $11/hour for that then something is wrong. I made more then that, way more. So don't come on here and offer smart alack remarks which isn't even worth my time reading on a serious subject in order look funny. You may not find what you say rude but others do.

Just to clear some confusion unemployment is 80% of your earnings within a fiscal year. I do have a part time job but I work only around 20 hours per week which is not even close to full time. I actually filed already and have received my full amount along with my part time earnings. I called and got everything straightened out so I am set. Thanks to everyone who replied seriously if I have any further questions I will be sure to PM.

When you have a mortgage and more bills then a cell phone and possibly a credit card to worry about then feel free to post advice. Other then that stay out of my threads with your garbage posts.

I was told that if you go on it.. as long as you are on it, you are required to take a job that they line up for you? Not sure if this is true or not.

Where did you come up with the 80% thing? I thought it was 60%.

It's not true.

They have a whole calculator/chart on their site. All I will say is that what I am getting is not that huge of a paycut then what I made working...And when I filed all I had to do was agree that I am available for work and that I am looking for work. Since I work p/t they also ask me how much I made per week.
