New Developments on Federal Unemployment Extensions (Updated June 14, 2012) En Español 06/14/12 2:30 p.m. Updated: Information on the potential maximum weeks of benefits provided has been updated.

While California's total unemployment rate remains high, the three month average is not 10% higher than it was during the same three month period during one of the last three years as required by the federal program. That means the week ending May 12, 2012, Read more [...]

Filing for Unemployment Insurance You likely have a wide range of emotions going through your mind when you find yourself unemployed. While this can be expected, it is essential that one of the first things you do (If not the first) when you find yourself unemployed, is to go and file for your right to collect unemployment insurance benefits. While the laws regulating unemployment benefits can be vastly different from state to state, provided you and your employer meet certain criteria, it is your absolute right to collect financial assistance from the state in which you and your employer have been paying your fair share into the system. The basic rule of thumb is, the sooner you file for unemployment benefits the more likely you are to not only receive them, but also not have them challenged Read more [...]Job Opportunities: 1 Job For Every 5 Unemployed Worker
Job Opportunities Scarce: One Job For Every Five Unemployed Worker
"In normal times…workers who qualify for unemployment insurance can receive up to 26 weeks of benefits. In every recession since the late 1950s, including the latest one, the federal government has created a temporary program that allows workers who cannot find a job before their unemployment insurance runs out to receive additional weeks of benefits as they continue to look for work. That's the program that ends today. "
The Importance of Getting Your Free Credit Report
Consumers are entitled to one free credit report each year from each of the three credit reporting agencies. While your credit score is not included in the free report, you can get it for a nominal fee. Many individuals wait until they are ready to make a major purchase before getting a copy of their credit report. However, this is something that all consumers should do on a regular basis. There are several reasons for this. One of the most important reasons to get a copy of your credit report on a regular basis is so that you can make sure all of the information it contains is correct. Incorrect information can lower your credit score and cause you to be turned down for credit. If you do find inaccuracies, there is a dispute process that you can start immediately in order to rectify Read more [...]

EDD Phone Interview Process
The Telephone Interview You should receive your claim materials within 10 days of filing your application for UI benefits. If there are any questions about your eligibility, Department staff will call employers as well as claimants to resolve eligibility issues. Usually, we contact an employer and the former employee to obtain information about the reasons the individual quit or was fired from work. In the case of a discharge, it is the employer's responsibility to prove that the former employee was fired for misconduct connected with work. In the case of a quit, the individual must show that he/she had good reason for quitting a job. For UI purposes, school employee claims have distinctive eligibility requirements. Department staff conduct telephone interviews with employers and claimants Read more [...]
