"If you file for Unemployment Compensation Benefits after quitting a job or being discharged (for reasons other than lack of work or job elimination), you must attend a hearing to determine eligibility for benefits.

"If you QUIT your job, the purpose of the hearing is to give you an opportunity to establish that you had good cause attributable to the employer for quitting the job. There are very few non-job-related reasons for quitting under which you may be approved for benefits. These include quitting to care for a seriously-ill spouse or child, or a parent domiciled with you, and quitting because of a loss of transportation other than your own personally-owned vehicle, provided you are otherwise eligible. Keep in mind that you do have to be able and available for full-time work in order to be eligible for unemployment benefits."

Not a lawyer, but I would say no, since you resigned.

ONLY if you resigned for a valid reason. Different states have a different list of what is "valid." Check what your state says.

No...find another job, don't sit around and let other people support you.

No. Once you resign you are the one leaving the job for your own reasons. Unless you can prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the workplace is hostile and you are quitting under duress, you will not be eligible for unemployment benefits.


Juanita
no. you cannot receive unemployment if you voluntarily leave a position.


Guy's baby
Aaaaaaaaaahhh, NO!


mahesh k
DONT DO THIS MISTAKE

No, you are only eligible if you get fired or let go. Resignation whether forced or not is still apart of your decision to leave.
