< Back to California Unemployment

I had two jobs during and before the pandemic. My second job was part time and I was only working for about 3 months before they let me go for covid. Well when I applied they keep basing my off my part time job basically with not too much accumulated. Now I’m being told my are out so I filed a new with my first job before the part time and all they did was pay me for the remaining balance on the old and I have been stuck unable to receive benefits 😩 help or any insights would be great

Yes I did my main job in which I worked full time they even asked about the job on the original phone interview but still did not update my claim. I have not spoken to a Tier 2 but I’m waiting for a call now

If you worked full time before those two jobs in the last 18 months, It should be updated and included in your eligible benefit amount. Yes, you’re doing a right thing now. Call and speak with tier 2 about your update.

Your benefits are calculated from your total of wage report to by your employer. If you have wages from; 1.1st job - $2,000/month 2. 2nd job - $1,000/month will calculates your benefits 1st job wages + 2nd wages ($3,000 - NOT $1,000). selects your highest Q's W-2 total for your Weekly benefits amount. Also, if you have 1st job income, you MUST report your when you certify for benefits. Many claimants made mistakes that they can file UI for 1 job of 2 jobs. ex) You lost 2nd job and filed new claim. Your WBA $350. When you certify for benefits, you MUST report the weekly wages from 1st job. If you miss the wage report, you will get "overpayment" notice. If you are not sure, call to file new or question regarding your new claim. https://join.claimyr.com/1373f0
